We hope to identify the needs and problems of tertiary educational facilities and what they would like to receive by way of support from industry and industrial partners.

We also aim to provide information on those institutions that provide applied physics courses. If your institution does provide such a course, please send me an appropriate URL for inclusion on this site.

Some potential questions or concerns are:

• What should institutions provide to support academics who want to offer commericial services?

If you, as an academic in Southern Africa, have any comments or questions regarding applied physics, please send them to me for inclusion on this web site to applied{at}saip{dot}org{dot}za.

Some responses

• "My university does not have a formal policy or guidelines to allow me to consult".
• "My industrial work is not recognised in the `Publish or Perish' infrastructure of rating academics".
