Uit die blou van onse hemel,

Uit die diepte van ons see,

Oor ons ewige gebergtes,

Waar die kranse antwoord gee,

Sounds the call to come together,

And united we shall stand,

Let us live and strive for freedom,

In South Africa our land.

The University of the Free State (UFS) is one of the oldest institutions of higher education in South Africa. It opened its

doors in 1904 in Bloemfontein as the Grey University College, with six students

in the Humanities. Since then, the institution has grown to more than 40 000

students, spread over three campuses and across seven faculties (Economic and Management Sciences, Education, Health

Sciences, the Humanities, Law, Natural and Agricultural Sciences, Theology and

Religion).

Most of our students are located on the Bloemfontein Campus, with the Qwaqwa

Campus situated in the picturesque Eastern Free State, serving a rapidly-

growing number of rural students from the immediate area and surrounding

provinces. The South Campus – also situated in Bloemfontein – serves as the centre for distance-learning programmes offered by the UFS, as well as alternative access to higher education for promising

students who have not obtained the required marks in their final school

examinations.

The UFS creates opportunities and growth through leading learning and

teaching, focused research, and impactful engagement with society.

Situated in the heart of South Africa, our character of caring and diversity translates into an outstanding university experience.

2011The academic brand - the historic University of the Free State crest that has been the symbol of the university since 1952, has evolved to embrace the aesthetic expectations of the stakeholders. The shape of the traditional academic shield has been simplified and contemporised. Much of the symbolism of the crest remains intact, acknowledging the location of the UFS brand as one of the country’s premier institutions of higher education, with a proud history of academic excellence and an ever evolving, vibrant culture.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE UFS CREST OVER MORE THAN A CENTURY

1904Up to 1935, the same coat of arms was used as the Grey College School.

1935By 1935, with the name change to University College of the Orange Free State, the coat of arms fell into disuse, especially among students.

1947In 1947, an agreement between management and students led to the new motto Per Fidem ad Sapientiam (Through faith to wisdom).

1950In 1952, it was changed to In Deo Sapientiae Lux (In God is the light of wisdom). The traditional orange, white and blue, linking the UFS to the South African national colours, changed in the late 1990s. The orange was replaced by cherry red.

MOKOENA, Mosebetsi Samuel

Thesis Title: IMPROVING READING COMPREHENSION FOR ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE LEARNERS: A FREE VOLUNTARY READING APPROACH

Mosebetsi Samuel Mokoena was born on the 15th of February 1986 in Sehlajaneng Village, Qwaqwa. He started his primary education at Lesaoana intermediate school in 1995 and matriculated from Makgabane secondary school in 2006. In 2009, he obtained a BA degree from University of the Free State, Qwaqwa campus. This was then followed by a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) and a B.Ed Honors Degree in 2010 and 2013, respectively. He later graduated with a Master’s



Degree (M.ED) with distinction in 2016 from the same university. He started working as a teacher at Esizibeni secondary school in 2011. He is now a lecturer at the University of the Free State.

With his thesis, titled: IMPROVING READING COMPREHENSION FOR ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE LEARNERS: A FREE VOLUNTARY READING APPROACH, the candidate has made a contribution to the field of free voluntary reading approach in assisting to improve reading comprehension for English first additional language learners. The study confirmed the existence of challenges in the teaching and learning of reading comprehension for EFAL learners. They included: persistent poor reading comprehension, continuous dependency on traditional pedagogic practices, a weak reading culture, and the use of English language. In order to alleviate these challenges, the study proposed the free voluntary reading approach and for effective use, the approach must focus on both the macro level (outside the classroom) and micro levels (inside the classroom). At the macro level, the focus is on needs identification process, context analysis, creation of vision and a road-map to overcome the challenges. At the micro level, emphasis is on context evaluation, co-lesson preparation, teacher-scaffolding, and peer scaffolding.

With this contribution, he attempts to pronounce the academic experiences of Deaf children and recommend how the children can access better education through a relevant curriculum, resources and class sizes, assessment and placement, kinds of support, and infrastructure in primary schools. Furthermore, the study contributes in the area of early identification and early intervention as well as the successes of Deaf children in academic and social circles. The results of this investigation serve as an indication of the value this type of intervention holds for the attempt to find a solution to the education of Deaf children in primary schools.

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY WITH SPECIALISATION IN SOCIOLOGY

MAGAIZA, Grey

Thesis Title: SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP AS A YOUTH DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY IN RESOURCE POOR COMMUNITIES. A CASE STUDY OF THIBELLA IN QWAQWA, EASTERN FREE STATE

Grey was born in Bulawayo. He did his Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Sociology and Master of Science in Sociology and Social Anthropology at the University of Zimbabwe where he was also appointed as a lecturer.

With his thesis, titled: SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP AS A YOUTH DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY IN RESOURCE-POOR COMMUNITIES. A CASE STUDY OF THIBELLA IN QWAQWA, EASTERN FREE STATE, the candidate critically analyses the interdisciplinary scholarship of social entrepreneurship, youth and community development ultimately synthesizing it within the sociological discipline. The candidate examined the extent to which social entrepreneurship intentions can contribute towards youth development in the resource-poor community of QwaQwa. The study made a number of key contributions to the scholarship footprint of SE. Firstly, it maps the pre-paradigmatic status of SE as a field of study and develops the enactive interdisciplinary paradigm that connects the disparate scholarship of SE. Secondly, the study generates middle-range theoretical propositions to strengthen SE approaches. Lastly, by using participatory research, the study assists SE

practitioners with a novel approach of including local theories and aspirations of social change in community development. The study presents the argument that a participatory identification of SE intentions by young people can be a catalyst for community development.

MATSIKA, Tsiidzai

Thesis Title: THE POLITICS OF SUSTAINABILITY: DISCOURSE AND POWER IN POST-2000 ZIMBABWEAN POLITICAL TEXTS

Tsiidzai Matsika was born in Mutare, Zimbabwe in 1984. She received her secondary education in the same town, where she matriculated at Sakubva Secondary School in 2002. She obtained the degrees of Bachelor of Arts Honours in English (2006) and Master of Arts in English (2013) from the University of Zimbabwe. She started her career as a Communication lecturer at Mutare Polytechnic in Mutare, Zimbabwe (2008-2016). In 2016, she was appointed as a lecturer in the Department of English and Media Studies at the University of Zimbabwe where she currently teaches English language and literature.

With her thesis, titled: THE POLITICS OF SUSTAINABILITY: DISCOURSE AND POWER IN POST-2000 ZIMBABWEAN POLITICAL TEXTS, the candidate contributes to scholarship on political communication in contemporary Zimbabwe. Using a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach, Matsika examined a range of Zimbabwean political texts, from election manifestoes and political campaign posters to policy blue-prints and election advertisements, with a view to understanding how language is aesthetically deployed in competing epistemologies and representations of sustainable economic development. The study presents the argument that, in a context of economic and political crisis, a language-focused analysis of political texts uncovers tensions inhabiting modes of institutional self-writing. A CDA approach to these policy narratives draws attention to the discursivity of rhetoric in a series of signs designed to shape knowledge about the Zimbabwean crisis. It is in this light that this study approached the crisis as a crisis of discourse.

SINYONDE, Bright

Thesis Title: NEGATIVE SPACES AND BLACK HOLES: (RE)IMAGINING RACE (BLACKNESS) IN POST-2000 SOUTH AFRICAN URBAN NARRATIVES



Dr Bright Sinyonde is a BA, BA Honours and MA in English graduate of the University of Venda. He is also currently a contract Lecturer in the Department of English, UFS Qwaqwa Campus. Dr Sinyonde is an emerging young scholar in the field of postcolonial urbanity and literature with a focus on the growing research field of representations of post-apartheid Black identities in South Africa. He is also currently preparing journal publications emanating from his doctoral thesis.

With his thesis, titled: NEGATIVE SPACES AND BLACK HOLES: (RE)IMAGINING RACE (BLACKNESS) IN POST-2000 SOUTH AFRICAN URBAN NARRATIVES, Bright Sinyonde focused on the way selected black South African authors depicted black urban dwellers' experiences in fictional Johannesburg and Cape Town during the immediate post-apartheid era to the early 2000s. He uses the concept of blackness to determine how black residents find place in post-apartheid city spaces. The study also unpacks how the depicted residents connect with their city and other residents born in the city (Alexandra) and different rural parts of the country's provinces such as Tiragalong in Limpopo, parts of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape province as well as those from beyond the country's borders; and constitute their identities – self, gender, urban and national, amidst residual effects of apartheid and that of the socio-economic and political connections between South Africa, Africa and the rest of the world.

Thesis Title: SPATIAL-TEMPORAL CHANGE OF HUMAN SETTLEMENTS DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN AFROMONTANE REGION: A CASE STUDY OF THABO MOFUTSANYANA MUNICIPAL DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY

Titilope Funmbi Onaolapo was born in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. She attended Methodist Grammar School, Bodija between 1990 and 1992 and finished from Wesley College of Science, Ibadan in 1995. She studied Urban and Regional Planning as her first degree and graduated in 2004; she had M.Sc. in Housing Development and Management from the University of Ibadan in 2014. She worked with a private Estate Management company, Jagun Associate, Broad Street, Lagos, Nigeria between 2005 and 2009. She had a PhD in Environmental Geography from the University of The Free State, Qwaqwa campus in 2020.

With her thesis, titled: SPATIAL-TEMPORAL CHANGE OF HUMAN SETTLEMENTS DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN AFROMONTANE REGION: A CASE STUDY OF THABO MOFUTSANYANA MUNICIPAL DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, the candidate investigated the spatial-temporal change in human settlement development pattern of Thabo Mofutsanyane municipality within the Drakensburg mountain of the Afromontane region. She assessed the land use pattern and development changes and determined the Spatio-temporal change between 1989 & 2018 using remote sensing and spatial metrics. She also identified and assessed the factors responsible for the changes and evaluated the current level of development. She modelled a sustainable human settlement development pattern for the study areas. The study showed a steady expansion in the built-up areas in the years under study, especially between 1989 and 1999. It also established that remotely sensed data with GIS and spatial metrics could be used to successfully monitor and plan for a sustainable settlement development in the mountainous region.

GOLJA, Desta Regassa

Thesis Title: SYTHESIS AND CHARCTERISATION OF RARE EARTH DOPED SILICATE NANOMATERIALS FOR APPLICATION IN LIGHTEMITTING DIODE

Desta Regassa Golja was born on the 23rd of October 1989 in Negele Arsi which located at southern Oromia, Ethiopia. He matriculated at Negele Arsi preparatory school in 2006. He attained a B. Sc degree in Applied physics at Hawassa University




in 2010. He graduated his MSc degree in Laser Physics at Addis Ababa University in 2012. He started his career in lecturer position 2013 at Wollega University. He achieved a certificate from sustainable energy material institute, which was held at Arusha, Tanzania, in 2016. In 2018, he was admitted as a researcher in the physics department and tutor at UFS up to date.

With his thesis, titled: SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RARE-EARTH DOPED SILICATE-BASED NANOMATERIAL FOR APPLICATION IN LIGHT EMITTING DIODES, the candidate contributes to scholarship on synthesis and characterization of un-doped, rare-earth ions (Dy3+, Eu3+, and Tb3+) doped, and co-doped Barium Calcium tetra silicate nano-phosphors (BCS). With this contribution, using the solution combustion technique, Desta obtained numerous samples to investigate the effect of these dopant ions on the structural, optical, and luminescence properties of nano-phosphors. The results of the study, such as crystallite size in the nano range, uniform particles size distribution on the surface, wide bandgap materials that are essentially required for the production of bright white light emitting that can convert the ultraviolet into visible light. Photoluminescence lifetimes in the order of milliseconds, and emission spectra in green, white, and red region indicated that the solution combustion is the improved technique to synthesize nano-materials for LEDs application.

HAILE, Hagos Tsegay

Thesis Title: MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF CERIUM DOPED YTTRIUM SILICATE (Y2SiO5:Ce3+) BY PULSED LASER DEPOSITION METHOD FOR DISPLAY APPLICATIONS

Hagos Tsegay was born on the 12th of September 1985 in Adwa, Tigray, Ethiopia. He matriculated at Nigiste-Saba High School in 2004 and later attained a Bachelor of Education in Physics (BED) from Mekelle University, Ethiopia in 2008. He also obtained his Masters in Nuclear physics from Addis Ababa University in 2011. Hagos has served as a lecturer in Hawassa University until he joined University of the Free State to pursue his PhD education. He also served as head of the Physics Department at the Hawassa University College of Natural and Computational Science for two years.

With his thesis, titled: MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF CERIUM DOPED YTTRIUM SILICATE (Y2SiO5:Ce3+) BY PULSED LASER DEPOSITION METHOD FOR DISPLAY APPLICATIONS, the candidate contributes to the area of luminescence and materials applicable in the field of display technologies. Currently, phosphor technology demands materials which are chemically and thermally stable and durable in the area of LED, field emission displays. The candidate deposited the phosphor materials by Pulsed Laser depositions, which is a modern approach useful in possible applications in display technologies and related areas.

MUSEMBI, Michael Kioko

Thesis Title: SOLUTIONS COMBUSTION SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERISATION OF RARE EARTH DOPED ZINC ZIRCONATE NANOCOMPOSITE

Michael Musembi graduated with a BSc in Physics and Mathematics from the Kenyatta University, Kenya in 1993 and Postgraduate diploma in Education from Egerton University in 1996 and thereafter a Masters in Science (Physics) from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in 2007. Upon graduation, he worked as a teacher in Vyulya Girls’ Secondary, Kavilinguni High and Muthetheni Girls’ Secondary Schools in Kenya. He was posted to Machakos Technical Training Institute upon joining the Technical Division and thereafter Machakos University College. Currently, he is a lecturer in Machakos University, where he once served as the chairman of the Physical Sciences department.

With his thesis, titled: SOLUTION COMBUSTION SYNTHESIS AND PHOTOPHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF RARE-EARTH DOPED ZINC ZIRCONATE NANOCOMPOSITES, the candidate makes a contribution to scholarship in the synthesis of solar energy materials. With this contribution, he attempts to optimize the synthesis conditions for the growth of zinc zircornate perovskite by the solution combustion method. The results show that energy materials grown in composites present more superior properties than their pure individual compounds. The investigation reveals that these properties are further enhanced through doping by rare-earth elements

South Africa, and the Free State in particular, has a long-standing friendship with our neighbouring country, Lesotho.

Through a shared history, we have become co-creators of our futures. For this reason, the UFS decided to incorporate our tradition with that of the Basotho in the design of our Main Procession graduation gowns.

The gowns are inspired by the Seanamarena – the traditional Basotho blanket. The different patterns on the Seanamarena indicate the status one holds in the Basotho nation or reflect the occasion being celebrated. Keeping the Seanamarena pattern in mind, we combined our traditional academic designs with that of the Basotho nation.

Yoke pattern for the Chancellor and Vice-ChancellorThis Seanamarena pattern is an interpretation of a design – used exclusively for the king and chiefs –which means “to swear by the king”. This blanket has the highest status of all Basotho blankets.

Yoke pattern for the Chairperson of the CouncilThis Seanamarena Victorian crest motif appeared after the visit of the Prince of Wales to Lesotho in 1925, which made a profound impression on the local people. Customers refer to this blanket as ‘lesiba’ – meaning feathers – when buying it.

Yoke pattern for the Vice-RectorThis Seanamarena Poone design symbolises good crops, wealth, and fertility. The Poone is given as a present to honour an important visitor.

Yoke pattern for RegistrarThe same Seanamarena Poone design used for the Vice-Rector applies to the Registrar, with some slight design and colour alterations.

The Deans wear gowns made in the colours of the faculties or others which indicate the office they hold.
