Bachelor of Engineering Technology Honours in Metallurgical Engineering

Purpose

The Bachelor of Engineering Technology Honours in Metallurgical Engineering lies within the engineering sector and is considered to be a scarce skill.  Given this, the programme has been designed such that it directly meets the needs of the sector, contributing ultimately towards the National Development Plan, benefiting not only the student, but society at large.  The qualification meets the specific needs of the sector by meeting and providing for the growing demand for skilled professionals in the metallurgical engineering domain. In addition to this, there also exists a demand by holders of technology-related qualifications to obtain a postgraduate qualification that enhances their professional and technical knowledge and grants them access towards pursuing a Master’s degree in engineering.   As the University of Johannesburg has been the first institution to implement the new ECSA endorsed Bachelor of Engineering Technology programmes in South Africa, the Bachelor of Engineering Technology Honours programme provides for articulation within University and from other intuitions that will be implementing the undergraduate programme in the near future

Admission Requirements

An NQF level 7 qualification or equivalent in the field of Metallurgical Engineering.
