The Republic of South Africa has emerged as a major
political and economic force within the continent,
under the ruling African National Congress (ANC).
The country has become an engine for economic growth,
political reform, and ethnic tolerance throughout
much of Southern Africa. Studying in South Africa
provides immersion into the rural African experience
of Sub-Saharran Africa, as well as a modern view of
the urban African city.
Set on South Africa's eastern coast, the port of Durban
is a large metropolitcan city in the largely rural province
of KwaZulu-Natal. Durban spreads out on the coastal
plain a few miles below the hills that contain the Howard
College campus and the 40,000 students attending the
University
of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). In addition to extensive
academic offerings available at UKZN, the university
offers extensive sporting, cultural and extra-mural
facilities. The newly merged University of KwaZulu-Natal
is poised to become one of South Africa's leading tertiary
institutions.
