Is your profile updated on the SU Knowledge Directory?
 
The aim of the SU Knowledge Directory is to make information about the expertise of our researchers more accessible by means of a web console which will feature on the SU website.  
The value of this directory lies therein that: prospective postgraduate students will be able to identify possible supervisors; it will assist media liaison; potential national and international research collaborators and industry partners will be able to search the directory for SU experts; it has the potential to promote interdisciplinary networking amongst SU researchers; and in general, it has the potential to enhance the visibility of SU research strengths and individual research expertise.
