The event at which the university will showcase its diverse range of research activities will be held in the Major Sports Hall on the Bellville Campus from 09H00.
This event is one of the highlights on the CPUT calendar and was first celebrated at CPUT in 2008 in order to promote a culture of research at the University.
CPUT researchers will be recognised for their contributions to the body of knowledge from publishing research papers to registering patents and even launching business companies.
Researchers who are newly-rated by the National Research Foundation will also be acknowledged during Research Day.
The highlight of the day will be the coveted research awards for research publication, postgraduate supervision and raising the most industry funding.
