University of Cape Town (UCT) Postgraduate Diploma Courses in 2024/2025
The University of Cape Town (UCT) is South Africa's oldest university, and is one of Africa's leading teaching and research institutions.
UCT was founded in 1829 as the South African College, a high school for boys.
The College had a small tertiary-education facility that grew substantially after 1880, when the discovery of gold and diamonds in the north – and the resulting demand for skills in mining – gave it the financial boost it needed to grow.
The College developed into a fully fledged university during the period 1880 to 1900, thanks to increased funding from private sources and the government.
During these years, the College built its first dedicated science laboratories, and started the departments of mineralogy and geology to meet the need for skilled personnel in the country's emerging diamond and gold-mining industries.
The University of Cape Town (UCT) is one of the most renowned universities in Africa, known for its world-class education and research opportunities. UCT offers a wide range of postgraduate programs, catering to students from various backgrounds and interests.
