Courses Offered at Vaal University of Technology (VUT) for 2027

Vaal University of Technology is a public higher education institution in South Africa's Gauteng province whose roots go back to 1966. Operating under the motto "Inspiring thought. Shaping talent.", VUT concentrates on vocationally oriented three-year diplomas alongside a handful of bachelor's degrees, spanning fields such as engineering, information technology, natural sciences, accountancy, human resources, tourism, law-related studies and teacher education. Many of its engineering and IT diplomas also have an extended four-year foundation track for applicants who narrowly miss the standard entry points, and several programmes in fields like fashion, food service and policing add practical interviews, portfolios or industrial exposure to the usual academic requirements. Prospective students apply online through the university's admissions portal, with initial selection based on final Grade 11 or the latest available Grade 12 results.
