SUCCESS STORIES

y name is Ambeswa Bavuma. I am originally
Mfrom the Eastern Cape, and was born in
a small town called Cofimvaba. I grew up and
studied both my primary and secondary education
in Cofimvaba. I did my high-school education in St
James Senior Secondary School. Currently, I stay in
Belhar in one of the residences. I decided to study
at UWC because it was recommended to me by my
old friend and, as a great institution that is isolated,
making it a safe environment and has produced a
great quality of professionals.

I am currently enrolled in my Master’s studies,
Master of Commerce in Information Management
(E-Logistics) stream. I believe the skills obtained
through completing this course will enhance my
opportunities in the future as 4IR will change
the working environment and skills required.
My toughest challenges so far have been
funding, but I now have hope that FASSET
has come on-board. A friend of mine
holds a PhD in Nanoscience and
inspires and motivates me as I listen to
his journey.
Being a graduate makes me feel
worthy and motivates me in many
other ways. Some of my fondest
memories are being at UCT during
the first year. I remember how
we used to fear Mr Arendse in FIA
141. The idea of being new to UWC still
fascinates me even today.

My dream is to finish my Master’s and my wish is to
become a business or data analyst in the next ten
years and to established myself – having a family
with a good stable income.

I would like to thank FASSET for their support and
hope my story can inspire and motivate others.

Make the future count.
