CPUT Live Radio
CPUT Live Radio is a bi-monthly edition, which serves as a hub of communication, learning and creativity. The platform is run entirely by our talented students as part of their training and experiential learning, thereby showcasing their skills in broadcasting, journalism, production and so much more.
The platform covers developments related to learning and teaching at Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) and profile cutting-edge research and responsive community engagement projects undertaken by the staff and students. It serves as an archive that documents the development of the institution.
As such, the platform gives students the opportunity to express their voices and aims to embody oneness and smartness as envisaged in CPUT's Vision 2030. While the platform is student-run, it is overseen by the Journalism Programme at CPUT.
Executive Producer is Media Production Lecturer, Magnificent Mndebele.
