Nzimande outlines plans for new R1bn medical university

Higher Education and Training Minister Blade Nzimande has outlined plans for the development of a new health and allied sciences university into which the Medical University of Southern Africa (Medunsa) campus of the University of Limpopo, located in Ga-Rankuwa, will be incorporated. This followed the completion of report and recommendations by a joint technical task team appointed by the Minister in July last year to advise himself and Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi on the unbundling and incorporation process of the university.
