That is an increase of 32% more students compared to last year.

The minors ‘Wildlife and Lodge Management’ and ‘Advanced Wine Studies’ are popular. The programmes of ‘Regional Tourism Management’ and ‘Humanitarian Management’ offer students an opportunity to contribute to the many development programmes in the townships of Port Alfred in South Africa.
