Welcome Back Message – 2020 Academic Year by Prof O Ayo-Yusuf, Vice-Chancellor (Acting)

Compliments of the new Season and welcome back to the new and, the first academic year of the decade at Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University (SMU). I trust that you have all enjoyed your summer break and are excited to start the 2020 academic year. Thank you for choosing SMU as your home away from home. We are grateful that you have chosen SMU as your number one educational destination. I am particularly deeply grateful to each of you for your contributions and extraordinary sacrifice that ensured that the majority of our students successfully completed the 2019 academic year. I am honoured to be a part of such a remarkable community! I very much look forward to the rich and rewarding academic year ahead for just under 7,000 students we expect to pursue their studies at SMU in 2020. As we look ahead and seek to engage with the opportunities and challenges facing SMU today and in the future, we continue to be dedicated to making investments that strengthen our community, create an enabling environment for our students and staff to pursue their passions and position our University for future success.
