The undergraduate programmes of the department consist of the following BEd streams: Science (Mathematics, Physical Science and Life science), Consumer Studies (Hospitality, Mathematical Literacy) and Business (Accounting, Economics and Business Management). The post graduate programmes include Honours’, Master’s and Doctoral programmes in MSBE.
The Department’s reputation for excellence is underpinned by its distinctive MSBE research that is partly led by OR Tambo Community Engagement Chair in Mathematics and Science Education through its distinguished and highly qualified academic staff comprising of Professors, Senior Lecturers, Lecturers and Technical staff.
As a way to ensure that our students meet the demands of the world of work they are also challenged to extend and enhance themselves intellectually, academically and professionally. Currently the employability of our graduate is 96% in education sector. Programmes offered within the Department have professional recognition through their emphasis on close working links with business, industry, and other professions.
At the same time, however, they emphasize the importance of a solid base of general skills and knowledge through a carefully designed core curriculum that connects with changes taking place within education sector locally and globally as well as sensitive to the needs and requirements of sector and the labour market.
