Emerging out of a partnership between UCT libraries,ICTS and the Research Office, the UCT eResearch Centre was established to link these support services to researchers and to take the University to the next level of research excellence. The UCT eResearch Centre’s mission is to partner with research groups around the University, working with them to:

  • Enhance their research and eResearch capabilities,
  • Connect them to the most appropriate tools or services, and to
  • Allow them to sustain these capabilities.
     

The eResearch Centre works

  • in close partnership with key service divisions on campus andlogo-small_cus service providers nationally and internationally
  • to improve alignment of UCT operations to support research
"The University of Cape Town established an eResearch Centre in response to the needs of our researchers. It is a facility comprised of people and equipment aimed at working side-by-side with researchers to help them store and manage research data, to apply high-performance computing to the data, to analyse the data using visualisation and other analytical tools, and to collaborate with research partners across the world." - eResearch Centre
