SUBMISSION OF RESEARCH OUTPUTS PUBLISHED IN 2025 

(Journal Articles, Conference Proceedings, Book Chapters and Whole Books)

 

The Research Publication Management System (RPMS) is now open for the submission of research outputs with publication date 2025.  A motivation for late claim is required where publication year is 2024.

Before loading your publication consult the documents under Files you can download.

The functionality of the RPMS remains unchanged and there are three critical components for uploading outputs successfully.  These are

  1. Publication information (the actual output being submitted)
  2. Author information (if Nelson Mandela University affiliation for internal authors is not on the publication, a letter explaining how the work was conducted or supported at Mandela University should be attached).  Please note: For Post-doc, select as Student and then select the Academic Title as, Other (Post-doc)
  3. Compulsory attachments and supporting documentation 

It is important to collect all required documentation before attempting to upload the publication because the functionality to save and submit later does not yet exist on the RPMS.  Remember always to scroll all the way to the right of the screen to ensure that all fields have been completed.

 

Online training sessions will be announced in due course, or may be requested.  New Closing date for online submission is 07 March 2025
