Each year thousands of students choose to study at CPUT, an institution renowned for its high quality of teaching and learning.

The university offers a wide range of internationally recognised undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in six faculties:

All our programmes have been specifically designed to ensure students gain relevant knowledge and training, which will ensure they play an integral role in the industries they will find themselves in.

A key feature of teaching and learning at CPUT is our Work Integrated Learning Programme. Through this programme all students have the opportunity to hone their skills in real-life working situations. By exposing students to industry, CPUT develops well-rounded and work-ready graduates, who often find employment immediately after graduation.

At CPUT, students can also be assured of access to well resourced learning environments. Each of our campuses boasts state of the art learning facilities and our impressive array of laboratories feature cutting-edge tools and technology. The collection of libraries is well stocked and our student computer facilities are first-rate.

We are also well aware of the challenges facing students and have established a number of student centred support services. These include:

• HIV/Aids Unit
• Writing Centre
• Tutor Programmes
• Clinics
• Disability Unit

We are also aware of the economic situations of many students and offer financial assistance to those who meet the necessary requirements.

Our students are the future building blocks of our country and through these resources CPUT aims to assist each individual to achieve their academic and personal goals.
