PROSPECTUS
Your school days are almost over. The choices you make, the
doors you elect to open, now and in the next few short years,
will have a profound impact on the entire direction of your
adult life. The decision to pursue a university qualification,
and the decision concerning which qualification to pursue
out of the many on offer, are themselves seminal decisions,
but the most crucial of all will be the university you choose
to be your home, your guide, your support, your inspiration.
As the pace of change and progress quickens, never before
has South Africa needed graduates of such high calibre,
to steer us to a prosperous and peaceful future, one that is
optimal for all.
At the University of Johannesburg (UJ), we have a single
passion: the provision of every possible resource and
opportunity to mould graduates who have every right
to be confident because they are superbly informed,
independent-minded and innovative to the core. And
our students are our family: we provide an enjoyable,
safe, caring, supportive, intellectually stimulating and
technologically savvy environment, and a host of sports,
arts and cultural activities. At UJ, you will encounter the
finest academic minds from all over the continent and the
globe, and you will enter a rich cosmopolitan student life.
Our nine faculties excel in the range and quality of our
cutting-edge programmes, covering the entire spectrum
from undergraduate diplomas to doctoral degrees, each
designed for perfect career placement. No less than
93% of our students are employed within 12 months of
graduation, and in the brief eleven years of our existence
as UJ, our graduates are already leaving their mark in their
thousands, in all aspects of South African life and beyond.
Our First Year Experience Programme provides a suite
of support and development opportunities to aid the
transition from school to university and to build and
focus your energy and ability. Our Senior Year Experience
Programme will boost you towards final year, graduation
and beyond, either into a postgraduate degree or
into professional life. Experience our technology-rich
approaches to teaching and learning, comparable in

studios, computer laboratories, common lecture venues,
an auditorium, a gallery and a library.
Many of our graduates are employed in South Africa
or internationally in diverse areas of industry, or work
as freelance designers, architectural technologists or
independent artists. Whatever their preference, they
have been thoroughly prepared as professionals through
creative and entrepreneurial development, which are key
elements in the programmes offered.
The Faculty works closely with industry to ensure that
its programmes remain relevant and to keep students
constantly exposed to changes occurring in the practising
worlds of art and design. In the course of the year,
recognised national and international artists, designers
and academics are invited to address students. The
FADA Gallery hosts a series of cutting-edge exhibitions
throughout the year and the annual student exhibitions
showcase the best student work for public viewing.
The Faculty offers various undergraduate and
postgraduate programmes in the field of art, design
and architecture.
Placement in the programmes is limited, and there are
additional requirements such as entrance assessments
and prescribed portfolios. Prospective students are
therefore encouraged to apply as early as possible.

The Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment (FEBE) is one nine
faculties at the University of Johannesburg, home to five schools, 12
departments and two technology stations. It offers both Engineering
Technology and Engineering Science undergraduate and postgraduate
programmes. In keeping with the Universitys comprehensive status, the
Faculty is the first in South Africa to offer global education to a full range
of professional engineering qualifications.
FEBE remains a leading provider of well-qualified and accredited engineers,
Engineering technologists and technicians. Over the years, the Faculty has established
strategic partnerships within the international higher education landscape and
with key industry stakeholders. Operating within the dynamic and competitive
and the
higher education landscape, FEBE is innovative in its approach to teaching,
learning, collaborative research, community engagement, international
partnerships and remains at the cutting edge of technology. It is focused on
the promotion of reflective and critical thinking, novel ways of problem-solving
Built Environment
and believes in environmentally sustainable solutions.
Engineering broadly focuses on the creative application of scientific and
technical knowledge to design, analyse, develop structures, machines,
manufacturing processes, construction of works/systems for practical purposes
or maximizing operations. An Engineer is one that analyses and innovates,
while the Technologist will implement and develop and the Technician will
install, commission, maintain and operate. Courses within the Faculty are best
suited for learners who are creative thinkers, possess an inventive imagination
with an aptitude for mathematics, science and technology, learners who enjoy
discovering how things work and solving problems with logic and reason.
The Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment is supported by the
following Accreditation Bodies:
Engineering and Engineering Technology Programmes the Engineering Council of
South Africa (ECSA)

Accreditation agencies generally align to international accords and in this way
programmes listed by FEBE receive recognition internationally. ECSA is a signatory of
the Dublin, Sydney and Washington Accord which provides international recognition
for the Facultys BEng and BEng Tech. Curricula are specifically designed, taking into
consideration the National Skills Development Plan, industry needs, surrounding
