Lecturers at CPUT are finding unique ways to make sure students learn from the top experts in the industry.
Postgraduate Chemical Engineering students, completing modules in rheology and non-Newtonian fluid flow, will have access to 20 hours of lectures from the renowned Prof Raj Chhabra of the Indian Institute of Technology in Kanpur India.
An adjunct Prof at CPUT, Prof Chhabra recently visited the Material Science and Technology research group. With the help of Bernie Karlie from the Fundani Centre, Prof Chhabra’s lectures were recorded, edited and packaged in a course form.
Head of the Material Science and Technology group, Prof Rainer Haldenwang says the course will be a core subject that all postgraduate students in the group will be expected to complete as part of their degree requirement.
