"When I visited Stellenbosch University as part of a delegation from Leipzig University in 1997 first I found myself at a University in transformation. The majority of the people I met were committed to the “South African experiment” and ready to open their doors to the international scientific community. Both partners, Leipzig and Stellenbosch, have developed since then positively and use each other as priority partners for international research and teaching. Leipzig University is proud to have such a renowned “friend” at the Cape and is ready to develop that partnership further along its internationalization plan." Dr Svend Poller

The partnership between Stellenbosch and Leipzig University deserves special reference for many reasons. It is a successful partnership example for the development of reciprocal fertile academic contacts in many different aspects.
