Purpose statement: The qualification reflects the need and demand within the civil engineering environment for everyday engineering technologists who are/will be able to perform and solve medium complexity broadly defined civil engineering problems. They would be able to function within a more complex environment after acquiring the knowledge, skills and attributes of the processes and procedure operation in civil engineering. This qualification will provide engineering technologists with the knowledge and applied competencies in a number of civil engineering fields. The specific purpose of educational programme designed to meet this qualification is to build the necessary knowledge, understanding, abilities and skills required for further learning towards becoming a competent practicing Professional Engineering Technologist. This qualification provides: a. Preparation for careers in engineering and areas that potentially benefit from engineering skills, for achieving technical proficiency and competency to make a contribution to the economy and national development. b. The educational base required for registration as a Candidate and/or a Professional Engineering Technologist with Engineering Council of South Africa. c. Possible admission to an appropriate BEng. Technology Honours or a BEng. NQF level 8 qualification, or equivalent. |
