Mentorship
Mentorship support for our postgraduates
expanded, with two new Senior Scientists
from Sasol R & T volunteering their services
to support students at the University of
Venda. This takes the number of Sasol
volunteers from R&T to 14.
Plans are underway to launch a mentorship
programme in our undergraduate
programme. Our aim is to utilise senior
students as a main support system
particularly for 1st year students who are
transitioning from school to university, but
the support will extend to other levels of
study as well to improve students’ overall
university experience.

Graduate Development
and Work Readiness
Final year students received much needed
training in job search tools. Attention
was given to skills, such as:
▪ CV writing;
▪ Interviewing skills;
▪ Developing your personal brand using
LinkedIn; and
▪ Resilience in job hunting.
Postgraduate students interested
in pursuing research-related careers
further received information on research
institutions and organisations that offer
internships and job opportunities.
