University of the Witwatersrand
The University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, is a multi-campus South African public research university〔(University World News ), SOUTH AFRICA: New university clusters emerge, retrieved 13 December 2011〕 situated in the northern areas of central Johannesburg. It is more commonly known as Wits University. The university has its roots in the mining industry, as do Johannesburg and the Witwatersrand in general. Founded in 1896 as the South African School of Mines in Kimberley,〔 it is the third oldest South African university in continuous operation, after the University of Cape Town (founded in 1829),〔(University of Cape Town ), Welcome to UCT, retrieved 13 December 2011〕 and Stellenbosch University (founded in 1866).〔(Stellenbosch University ), Historical Background, retrieved 13 December 2011〕
In 1959, the ''Extension of University Education Act'' forced restricted registrations of black students for most of the apartheid era; despite this, several notable black leaders graduated from the university. It was desegregated once again prior to the abolition of apartheid in 1990. Several of apartheid's most provocative critics, of either European or African descent, were one-time students and graduates of the university.〔
The university has an enrolment of 30,833 students as of 2013, of which approximately 18 percent live on campus in the university's 22 residences. As of 2013, 67.14 percent of the university's total enrolment is for undergraduate study, with the remaining 30.86 percent being postgraduate.〔
