- Governing bodies
The Council of the University of Stellenbosch governs this higher education institution and the institutional statute.
The Institutional Forum (IF) is one of the University's 3 main statutary bodies - the other two being the Council and the Senate. The IF of the US was initiated in August 1999 in accordance with the requirements of the Higher Education Act (Act 101 of 1997).
The senate of a public higher education institution is accountable to the council for the academic and research functions of the public higher education institution and must perform such other functions as may be delegated or assigned to it by the council.
