Relationship between organizational support and postgraduate success rates : an Engineering and Built environment case study at a University of Technology

M. Tech. Business Administration / According to Strydom et al.'s (2010) South African Survey of Student Engagement (SASSE) project, the report describes the "revolving door syndrome" in which the increase in access to Higher Education is not matched by a concomitant increase in student success, an occurrence which continues to characterise the Higher Education system in South Africa. The Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment at Tshwane University of Technology believes that the low success rate of postgraduate students may be attributed to the lack of provisioning of adequate resources needed by such students. This study seeks to identify the most important organizational support factors which should be focused on when developing future strategies for the improvement of success rates of these students.
