The Faculty is proud to announce that another lecturer has obtained a Ph.D. degree.

The final defence of his dissertation was on 4 April 2012 and he passed without any corrections required. Gus worked full-time on his degree for approximately three years in London, made possible by the prestigious Laurie Dippenaar/FirstRand Scholarship for International Postgraduate Studies that he received during 2007.
