As your university we have high expectations of you; as a nation we depend on you and your fellow graduates to influence, change and improve our society by critically engaging with issues. Your main purpose

Professor Brian O' ConnellRector & Vice-Chancellor

Welcome to the University of the Western Cape

as a part-time student here is not just to obtain a degree or certificate after three to five years of study, but to take responsibility to educate yourself in the full sense of that word. A degree or certificate is not just a piece of paper but also a powerful symbol embodying your efforts to acquire an education that is meaningful to you and to our society.

UWC is committed to lifelong learning, both as a philosophy and a practice. This is in response to the fact that more and more people have the desire and the need to work while studying throughout their lives, not least because knowledge and skill become obsolete at an incredible rate. We understand that this is not an easy thing to accomplish and UWC is keen to support such students by striving to be flexible and relevant in the way in which we present our services.

I trust that you will work hard and that your effort during the time spent at UWC will change your life for the better, opening new doors and opportunities in future. With your support, we will continue to make UWC a place of quality, a place to grow, from hope to action through knowledge.

Recent surveys showed that 91% of our part-time students are working. Lifelong learning enables students to learn at different times, in different ways, for different purposes at various stages of their lives and careers, and to gain full accreditation for their efforts. In this way, the major pressures on time and money that full-time study traditionally requires are minimized in favour of shorter, smaller periods of study and payment. This is attractive to more and more students, making continuing and part-time study one of the fastest-growing sectors of student admissions to tertiary education institutions in South Africa, and world-wide.

While we at the university will strive to give you support, you are required to manage your time carefully to be able to study. Strong family and workplace support, and a dedication to 'stay the course' are essential. The reward is certainly worth the effort, and the university is here to help you succeed.

Life is a Learning Journey Why should you choose UWC?

When you join UWC, you are joining a university with its roots deep in the communities it serves and a quality of learning that reaches the heights of international excellence. From business and economics, to education, public administration, health, natural sciences and much more, the University of the Western Cape is a place where people come to join with others to broaden knowledge, sharpen skills, and then put back what they have learnt to benefit themselves, their careers, and the society in which we live.

UWC is continually expanding the range of ways that students can access learning through the university. In addition to part-time and continuing education programmes, more and more areas of study are being offered on-line as e-learning courses.

An additional option available in certain circumstances is customised and in-service training which is designed to suit the particular needs of employers and staff of organisations and businesses.

The University's 106ha main campus lies like an oasis in the centre of the Cape Metropolitan area. With a striking view of Table Mountain on one side and the dramatic Stellenbosch mountains on the other, it is just 27 kilometers from central Cape Town and the V & A Waterfront and a mere 7km from the airport. The 30ha Cape Flats Nature Reserve (a Provincial Heritage site) one of the last representative patches of Cape Flats fynbos, forms part of the modern, leafy campus. The University has two other campuses: one for Dentistry at Tygerberg Hospital complex close by, and an Oral Health Centre in Mitchell's Plain.

UWC sees itself as an Engaged University, facing the future in a way that transcends the past, and embracing the complex reality of transformation and global technological advances. It is committed to excellence in teaching, learning and research, to nurturing the cultural diversity of South Africa, and to responding in critical and creative ways to the needs of a society in transition. Drawing on its proud experience in the liberation struggle, the University is aware of a distinctive academic role in helping to build an equitable and dynamic society.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

Learners who are 23 years of age or older and who do not have formal qualifications to enter university can now bid for admission either by writing tests of academic readiness or by doing a portfolio development course. The tests for academic readiness are written in October whilst the Portfolio Course is offered after hours over nine weeks and involves attending five contact sessions and two advising sessions as candidates prepare their learning portfolio. The successful portfolio presents evidence that the student has attained the level required for entry, although in some cases, an additional entrance test may be prescribed. The portfolio development course will be offered from May to September. For further information contact the Division for Lifelong Learning: 021 959-2799 or visit our website: www.uwc.ac.za (click on 'Division for Lifelong Learning', 'Access' and 'RPL').

Continuing Education Courses (CE)

In addition to the formal menu of part-time studies at UWC there are various other 'short' courses on offer to individuals, professionals, corporate and community-based organizations. These courses which are referred to as CE Courses in this prospectus (page 44 to 67), are aimed at meeting the needs of those who are currently employed or unemployed, helping to secure access to the kinds of knowledge, skills and information required to participate effectively in society and in the changing economy.

A flexible admissions system and equitable selection procedures ensure that students from all sectors of the community have a fair chance to gain access to university studies. The following options are available:

Senate Discretionary (SD) Admission

A National Senior Certificate (2008) or matriculation with exemption is the normal requirement for admission to the university. You may, however, have a matric without exemption and be willing to undergo assessment specified by the university to determine your potential to succeed. Subject to the discretionary approval of Senate the university can admit students conditionally, based on the results of the assessment mentioned before. Good symbols in certain matric subjects may also be a requirement for admission into particular programmes. For more information, contact the faculty of your choice.

Age Exemption Admission

Learners who have a National Senior Certificate and who will be 23 years or older during their first year of study may qualify for admission to university provided they adhere to certain conditions. Consult the Admissions Office for more details. Learners over 45 years of age can be admitted to the university without any formal entry requirements but we would strongly advise the Portfolio Development Course for most applicants. Contact the Division for Lifelong Learning: 021 959-2799 for advice in this regard.
