Abstract
This digitised archival document records the Rhodes University graduation ceremony held on Saturday, 6 April 1974, in the University Great Hall. The seven-page programme identifies university officeholders and lists graduates across the Faculties of Science, Commerce, Social Science and Law, including qualifications in zoology, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, pharmacy, economics, accounting and social work. Postgraduate research includes studies of high-molecular-weight N-nitrosamines, antibiotic resistance transfer in bacteria, fish ecology in Lake Sibaya, burrowing sand prawns, the geology and economic potential of the Pilanesberg, and the ecology of aquatic organisms in South African lakes. The programme also records master's and doctoral degrees, academic distinctions and research on human capital and South African economic development. As a primary historical source, it preserves the names and academic achievements of graduates and provides insight into Rhodes University's scientific research, professional education and scholarly priorities in 1974, supporting institutional, biographical, genealogical and regional historical research.
