• Art, Design and Architecture• Economic and Financial Sciences • Education • Engineering and the Built Environment • Health Sciences • Humanities • Law • Management • Science

To be able to gain access to a faculty and specifi c programmes, applicants are required to have the appropriate combination of recognised National Senior Certifi cate (NSC) subjects as well as certain levels of achievement in these subjects as set out in this prospectus.

Note: Compliance with the minimum requirements does not guarantee a place as the University has a specifi c number of places as approved by the department of Higher Education and Training for new undergraduate fi rst years.

Conditional admission is based on the fi nal Grade 11 results. Final admission is based on the fi nal Grade 12 results.

• Applicants must meet the criteria set by the relevant faculty with regard to their chosen academic subjects.

• All additional criteria for specifi c learning area specializations, and/or specifi c subject methodologies have to be met as well.

How to determine your Admission Point Score (APS)

A new Admission Point Score (APS) explained below has been developed for the National Senior Certifi cate (NSC) and the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) based on the Achievement Rating of each subject. The APS is basically the sum of the achievement ratings of the seven school subjects, keeping in mind that the performance rating achieved for Life Orientation must be divided by 2.

These results will give us additional information about our entrants, and assist our teaching staff to understand your academic needs and your level of learning at school. Most universities in South Africa will be requiring applicants to write these tests.

• The NBTs can be written country-wide during the second half of 2013. Information as to dates, venues, test registration and costs is available from the NBT website at www.nbt.ac.za, or from the NBT call centre at 021 650 3523. You will receive your results and at the same time your results will automatically

be sent through to any university you may have applied to. You will not need to worry about submitting them yourself.

• There are two benchmark tests: the test in academic and quantitative literacy (the AQL), which all entrants will write; and the Mathematics test, which is only required for applicants to certain Faculties or courses. Please only attempt the Mathematics test if you have included Mathematics in your NSC subjects. Do not write Mathematics if you have studied Mathematical Literacy for your NSC.

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.

Caring, Dynamic, Engaged The University of Johannesburg’s Faculty of Education is engaged and dynamic in advancing education as professional practice and fi eld of scholarly inquiry through excellence in teaching, research and community service. Although our Conceptual Framework for teaching and learning serves as our guiding principles in the design and execution of all our learning programmes, they are perhaps most visibly embodied in our three Initial Teacher Education programmes, namely:• Bachelor of Education (BEd) in Foundation Phase Teaching (Grades R-3) • Bachelor of Education (BEd) in Intermediate Phase Teaching (Grades 4-7) (subject to fi nal approval)• Bachelor of Education (BEd) focusing on High School Teaching (Grades 7-12) These programmes are not merely “how to teach” programmes. The focus is not on theories or on giving guidelines for “the transfer of knowledge”. Instead, they were designed to prepare our students to be critical thinkers, capable of continuous evaluation of their own contribution to education as well as to the wider community. In addition, through both the choice of learning content and the manner in which student learning is guided and supported, these programmes are aimed at inspiring our students to care – about those they will teach, about what they will teach and about the way that their teaching can change their world.

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 specifi c selection criteria may be applied.

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-qualifi ed 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 scientifi c and technical knowledge to the design, analysis and/or construction of works for practical purposes. It can also be defi ned as the creative application of scientifi c 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.

The Faculty of Humanities comprises of nineteen academic departments ranging from modern and ancient languages to the social sciences and psychology. The Faculty offers seventeen 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.

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 specifi c selection criteria may be applied.
