BOODSKAP VAN DIE VISEKANSELIER EN REKTORProf. Ihron Rensburg

Beste Voornemende Student

Jou skooldae is amper iets van die verlede en jy staan op die punt om die belangrike reis na jou toekomstige loopbaan aan te pak. Die akademiese program en die universiteit wat jy as jou tuiste vir die volgende paar jaar kies, is een van die belangrikste besluite wat jy ooit sal neem. Hierdie besluit sal jou verdere opleiding en beroep bepaal, jou persoonlike groei beïnvloed en die grondslag lê vir jou bydrae tot die totstandkoming van ’n beter Suid-Afrika en wêreld vir ons almal.

Aan die Universiteit van Johannesburg (UJ) glo ons daaraan om ingeligte, innoverende, nadenkende, selfstandige en afgeronde toekomstige leiers van ons land te lewer. Ons verskaf aan ons studente 'n aangename, veilige, sorgsame, ondersteunende, intellektueel stimulerende en tegnologies kundige omgewing en 'n magdom sport-, kuns- en kulturele aktiwiteite. Ons bied 'n omvattende spektrum loopbaangerigte en tradisionele akademiese en professionele programme van 'n hoë gehalte aan – wat die hele spektrum dek, vanaf voorgraadse diplomas tot doktorsgrade. Ons innoverende onderrigmetodes en gebruik van akademiese tegnologieë is nuwerwets en fokus op die leerbehoeftes van ons studente, en ons ondersteunende Eerstejaarservaring-program verseker 'n gladde oorgang van hoërskool na tersiêre studie.

Ons verhoog voortdurend die gehalte van ons onderrig-, leer- en navorsingsfasiliteite sodat ons 'n uitsonderlike akademiese ruimte vir ons akademici en studente kan skep. Ná ons aansienlike belegging in die Soweto Kampus, is daar in 2013 aansienlik in die Doornfontein Kampus belê. Die groot opknapping en uitbreiding op die Doornfontein Kampus het gefokus op die ontwikkeling van fasiliteite vir en programme in Ingenieurswese en Gesondheidswetenskappe.

Navorsing bly noodsaaklik vir nasionale en wêreldwye gesondheid, stabiliteit, welstand en vooruitgang, en is 'n belangrike aanwyser van die statuur van 'n universiteit. UJ het die afgelope vyf jaar aansienlik in navorsing belê, wat 'n dramatiese toename in die aantal en wêreldwye impak van ons navorsingsbydraes en ultramoderne navorsingsfasiliteite tot gevolg gehad het. Deur middel van ons innovasies en samewerking met plaaslike en internasionale agtenswaardige instellings is ons besig om ons gedeelde toekoms dinamies te vorm.

Terwyl ons in 2015 ons 10e bestaansjaar vier, presteer UJ bo verwagting soos weerspieël word in die feit dat ons die jongste universiteit is wat deel van die top 4% van universiteite wêreldwyd is en in die feit dat ons die enigste Afrika-universiteit is wat lidmaatskap het van die wêreldwye netwerk van navorsingsintensiewe universiteite, Universitas 21. Hierdie uitstaande prestasies is net twee van die vele bewyse van ons verbintenis tot die nastrewe van insluiting, diversiteit, nasionale responsiwiteit en wêreldwye uitnemendheid.

Deur UJ te kies, word jy deel van 'n kosmopolitiese, ruimdenkende instelling waar ons die oorkoepelende doel van wêreldwye uitnemendheid en statuur aangryp. Ons stel ambisieuse doelwitte vir onsself, wat ons bereik.

Ons nooi jou uit om by UJ, een van die toonaangewende hoëronderwysinstellings op die Afrika-kontinent, in te skryf.

The Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture (FADA) is committed to fostering creative and professional excellence in art and design education.

The Faculty is home to approximately 1 200 students who study and work in the custom-built FADA Building on the Bunting Road Campus. Conveniently situated in the building are a number of specialised workshops, 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 three year diploma and degree programmes. Bachelor of Technology (BTech) and honours degrees, involving one additional year of full-time study after the diploma or degree, are also offered.

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.

Disclaimer: In order to be considered for selection for a programme, an applicant is required to comply with the programme’s minimum admission criteria in respect of the total APS and Group A and B subjects. Meeting the Faculty’s minimum requirements for a particular programme does not necessarily guarantee admission to that programme as specific selection criteria may be applied.

The Faculty of Education strives to prepare teachers who are caring,

teaching in a diversity of contexts.

Funda UJabule School in Soweto is the first and only school in SA that offers teacher education and research,

as well as providing a service to the community.


The University of Johannesburg’s Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment is now one of the largest and best-equipped faculties in Southern Africa. With the high demand for engineers in our rapidly developing country, the Faculty is a leading provider of well-qualified and accredited engineers, technologists and technicians for the industry. The faculty is well known for its exceptional standard of education and research offering programmes that are accredited by the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA).

The history of the concept of “engineering” stems from the earliest times when humans began to invent clever engines, such as the pulley, lever or wheel, etc. The exact etymology of the word engineer, however, is a person occupationally connected with the study, design and implementation of engines. The word “engine” derives from the Latin ingenium, meaning “innate quality, especially mental power, hence a clever invention”. Therefore an engineer is essentially someone who makes useful or practical inventions.

Engineering is the discipline of acquiring and applying scientific and technical knowledge to the design, analysis and/or construction of works for practical purposes. It can also be defined as the creative application of scientific principles to design and develop structures, machines, manufacturing processes; or to construct or operate the same fully optimizing their design. An engineer also ensures that all he or she does not only serve an intended function but does so economically and safely.

As we celebrate the 10th year of our existence in 2015, UJ is excelling well beyond expectations, as reflected in us becoming the youngest

university to enter the top 4% of universities worldwide, and in us taking up membership, as the only African university, in the global

network of research intensive universities, Universitas 21.


Recognised nationally and internationally, the University of Johannesburg’s Faculty of Health Sciences reflects one of the most unique compositions within higher learning in South Africa today. The Faculty houses not only programmes traditionally associated with the Health Professions Council of South Africa and the South African Nursing Council, but also complementary health disciplines and Sport and Movement Studies.

The Faculty offers innovative methods of training with a focus on problem-based education, which is underpinned by appropriate facilities ranging from a well-equipped dissection facility to various types of laboratories. An on-site Health Training Centre ensures that students receive a wide range of relevant experience under the supervision of qualified practitioners, enhanced by placements in relevant service-rendering facilities.

The Faculty’s specialised and highly trained lecturers prepare students for careers in Biomedical Technology, Chiropractic, Emergency Medical Care, Environmental Health, Homeopathy, Nursing, Optometry, Podiatry, Radiography, Somatology, and Sport and Movement Studies.

The Faculty of Humanities comprises of nineteen academic departments ranging from modern and ancient languages to the social sciences and psychology. The Faculty offers sixteen undergraduate degree programmes and one diploma programme, catering for a wide range of study and career opportunities. Moreover, there is ample choice in each programme, allowing students to tailor the contents of their programmes to suit their interests and needs. The modules in each programme contain information, analyses and theories that are relevant, up to date and of the highest academic standard. Academic departments offer postgraduate programmes up to doctoral level.

Intellectually, the Faculty is vibrant, with a strong research output, numerous public seminars, and a healthy tradition of debate. Students are encouraged to question and explore, and to interrogate knowledge paradigms rather than simply accept them. A principal objective of the Faculty is to produce graduates capable of advanced analytical and critical thinking skills, independent and progressive thinking, allowing them to access and contribute towards all forms of human knowledge, and to make dynamic interventions in their chosen professions. Humanities graduates often achieve public prominence, and contribute towards social change aimed at increasing the social good.

Students are encouraged to question and explore, and to interrogate knowledge

paradigms rather than simply accept them.


The Faculty of Law is a proud faculty with a reputation for academic excellence. Although the Faculty is relatively small, its accredited research output annually ranks among the highest in the country. Faculty members are continually involved in the writing, updating and editing of law books, in addition to the publication of various articles in law journals and papers at international conferences, for which they are responsible. The Faculty also edits the Journal of South African Law (TSAR), which has been published since 1976.

The Faculty annually awards the degrees BA (Law), BCom (Law), LLB, LLM and LLD. In addition to these degrees, the Faculty has a strong division for continuous and professional development programmes that offers postgraduate and undergraduate diplomas, certificates and short programmes in specialised areas such as tax law, insolvency law, compliance, criminal justice and forensic investigation, cyber law, labour law, social security, environmental law, drafting of contracts and entertainment law. The Faculty of Law also has various research institutes and centres that are involved in new legislation and legal development. Students at the Faculty’s three law clinics on the Witwatersrand and Soweto offer free legal advice to members of the public.

A law degree offers many exciting and challenging career opportunities. The Faculty of Law’s students are highly sought after in the legal and commercial worlds, and form part of a rich tradition and of a student body which is proud of its ties with a Faculty of excellence.

The Faculty of Science prides itself on its vibrant, dynamic and diverse scientific community of scholars who are passionate about enhancing the learning experience of our students, enhancing the research profile of the Faculty and enhancing the academic, social and economic impact of the Faculty’s teaching and research programmes.

Innovative education, internationally competitive research, as well as community development, are integrated into a dynamic synergy. We provide outstanding service to our students in respect of learning programmes, learning facilities, in-service training and a learning environment that is conducive to life-long learning. Four year programmes are offered as alternative access routes to students who require them, and academic support and mentorship programmes are provided to students who need additional guidance and assistance. Our students are in great demand in the business sector and contribute significantly to the industry.

The Faculty is an active player in a wider network of national and international partnerships and collaborations. One example is a joint PhD programme with the reputable St Andrews University in Scotland. With regard to undergraduate programmes, we are proud that UJ holds accreditation from the British Computer Society for our BSc degree programme in Information Technology.

These and other international partnerships with prestigious institutions are testimony to the high esteem that our staff, students and programmes enjoy in the international community. Each year, several staff members and students receive national and international acclaim for research and other academic achievements. The Faculty is proud that it has a unique state-of-the-art analytical research facility, which houses the multi-user analytical apparatus of the Faculty in a single unit.

It is evident from all of the above that the Faculty of Science is fully dedicated to realising all of its ideals.
