Congratulations to Professor Tania Douglas to her induction into UCT's College of Fellows at a graduation ceremony on 14 December 2018.

The Council of the University has established Fellowships for members of permanent academic staff in recognition of original distinguished academic work such as to merit special recognition. In considering the conferment of the Fellowship, all research and original work standing to the credit of the candidate is considered, with publications being regarded as the main evidence of original distinguished academic work. There should also be evidence of international and not only local recognition of a candidate’s work, where the field of activity of the candidate makes this a reasonable requirement.
