Prof Nkomo receives A-rating

Professor Stella Nkomo, Deputy Dean for Research and Postgraduate Studies in the Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences at the University of Pretoria, received an A2-rating from the National Research Foundation (NRF). This is an exceptional achievement and makes her the only A-rated scientist in the Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences.

A researcher who receives an A2-rating is recognised by the overriding majority of reviewers as a leading scholar in his or her field internationally for the high quality and impact (either wide or confined) of his or her recent research outputs.

Prof Elsabé Loots, Dean of the Faculty, congratulated Prof Nkomo with this acknowledgment of her research. Prof Nkomo was also recently recognised as a Continental Lifetime Achiever in CEO Global's Africa's Most Influential Women in Business and Government Awards. The awards form part of an annual programme that celebrates the achievements of women across the African continent.
