Dr. Albert Schram

Unitech reached an agreement with the former vice-chancellor following his judicial review proceedings, which were dismissed last month, to release Dr. Schram to leave the country with his final entitlements.

Since establishing this understanding, both parties have moved on.

Unitech understands that police are investigating a complaint lodged by the former council in 2012.

The university maintains its stance and clarified that it has nothing to do with these criminal investigations.

The University of Technology Council has released a public statement confirming Dr. Albert Schram’s termination.

The unanimous council decision was on grounds of serious misconduct and breach of contract of employment.

On 19 January 2018, the University of Technology Council made a unanimous decision to charge Dr. Albert Schram with 21 allegations.

As per the term of his contract of employment, Dr. Schram was given seven working days to respond to the allegations.
