It is with deep sadness that we inform the university community of the passing of Professor Jeff Bindon, who has been a part of this university for the past 47 years, on 15 October 2016. Jeff Bindon completed his schooling at Pretoria Boys High School before entering the University of Pretoria where he obtained his BScEng. After gaining experience at the South African Railways he decided to study further overseas and entered Imperial College in London where he completed his Masters in Engineering, and then his PhD in 1970. In the latter research he was amongst the pioneering researchers developing computer code for predicting flow behaviour; a process we now take for granted.
