Engineering Council (ECSA) once again gives the green light to CUT’s Faculty of Engineering, Built Environment and IT programmes
CUT offers accredited academic programmes by highly respected accredited bodies, such as SAIPA, SABPP, and Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA) and has strong affiliations with several Sector Education and Training Authority (SETAs).
The ECSA review team visited the Faculty of Engineering, Built and Information Technology (FEBIT) on 20 and 21 October 2022, for regular and provisional accreditation of engineering qualifications.
The Bachelor of Engineering Technology (BEngTech) in Electrical Engineering received full accreditation until the next normal cycle (5 years). The BEngTech Honours in Civil and Mechanical Engineering both received Provisional Accreditation (Provisional Accreditation is given after 50% of the qualification is completed.) The honours degree will be reviewed in 2023 for full accreditation. CUT is the first university to receive provisional accreditation for offering the BEngTech Honours degrees.
ECSA is a statutory body established in terms of the Engineering Profession Act (EPA),46 of 2000. Its primary role is to regulate the engineering profession.
