2022 in pictures

30 October 2023

The true beauty of the University of Cape Town (UCT) can be summed up in just two words: our people. The year 2022, like so many other years, presented many obstacles, but UCT staff and students found ways around and through all of them. As we reflect on 2022, let’s commend each other for our achievements, our steadfastness in times of upheaval, our resilience when we were stretched beyond our means – and our continued commitment to making and keeping UCT Africa’s number one university.
