Executive Dean of the Faculty Dr Stanley Mukhola obtained his Doctorate in Environmental Education from the University of Johannesburg. His areas of expertise include Environmental education; Food, Water and Sanitation. Dr Mukhola is passionate about the transformation of higher education in South Africa and is committed to quality education. He was involved in all the Higher Education Quality Committee (HEQC) audits at this University and he has chaired audit committees of other universities. Under his leadership, the first libraries were opened as community projects in rural Limpopo and in KwaZulu-Natal. A word from the Dean I am extremely excited about 2012 and I hope you are too. At TUT, we nurture cultural diversity and we are passionate about uplifting people and helping them realise their dreams. I want to assure you that you will make the right decision to entrust us with your future. So, join TUT, a learning institution with an innovative spirit where academic and practical training constantly add value to global standards. We used to think that education was something which happened to you when you went to school. We thought that teachers and books were the main sources of education. Now, we know that education is a life long process. We know that all experience, in some measure, educates and that the purpose of the school is only to guide this experience. Remember this, do not leave education up to your teachers. Take responsibility for your life and dreams. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a struggle - accept it. Life is an adventure - date it. Life is sorrow overcome it. Life is a duty - perform it. Life is a mystery - unfold it. Life is a dream - realise it. Life is a journey - complete it. Life is love - enjoy it. Life is beauty - praise it. Good luck with the academic year and with your career choices. Enjoy life and this journey to the fulfillment of your dreams! 2 Executive Dean of the Faculty of Humanities
Associate Dean of the Faculty Prof Elsabe Coetzee is the Associate Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and her office is situated on the Soshanguve North campus. This campus accommodates four of the eight departments of the Faculty. Apart from assisting the Executive Dean in all the management activities of the Faculty, Prof Coetzee is also the Faculty coordinator with regard to the planning and execution of the Integrated and Operational Plan (building and renovation projects) on the Soshanguve campuses. A major electricity upgrading project on the Soshanguve North campus was completed in 2011.

Strict safety and security measures are currently implemented on these campuses. In the near future, the main entrances and landscaping areas will be attended to. Prof Coetzee s ideal is to cooperate in all processes with the aim of making the TUT campuses the centre of attraction in our environment. Soshanguve residents and students should always be proud of TUT, know what the university means to them and how they can be involved in the development that TUT brings to them. Prof Coetzee is also involved in research and is focusing on topics like community engagement, postgraduate studies and open and distance learning. The Faculty of Humanities has developed impressively in many areas over the past few years and she is proud to be part of the management team of the Faculty of Humanities and TUT. I am honoured to serve TUT, the students and the community during these interesting times. I want to contribute to a legacy for the next generation in order for them to fully participate in and experience academic privileges. Associate Dean of the Faculty of Humanities 3
Department of Applied Languages Applied Languages Language is an instrument without which no human being, organisation or community can function effectively. By using words: people interact; products and services are marketed; companies are managed; negotiations are conducted and conflicts defused; knowledge is acquired and shared; realities are created and changed; and people empower themselves. A language practitioner is assured of ample challenging employment opportunities and an exciting work environment! The Department is probably one of the largest language departments in South Africa, offering service subjects to more than 45 National Diploma and Bachelor of Technology programmes on six geographically dispersed campuses (Pretoria, Soshanguve, Ga-Rankuwa, emalahleni, Polokwane, Nelspruit). QUALIFICATIONS, ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND COURSE STRUCTURE Language Practice The minimum requirement for admission to the three-year National Diploma: Language Practice, is a Senior Certificate or equivalent qualification, with at least D symbols or level 4 score for the major languages offered in the programme. Students with an N Dip: Language Practice, a BA (Languages) or an equivalent qualification may apply for admission to the Bachelor of Technology degree programme in Language Practice (a fourth year of study, equivalent to the traditional honours degree). Students are selected with care and only a limited number are accepted for this prestigious programme. The practical course content, firmly based on scientific theory, and the entrepreneurial approach enable competent graduates to present themselves to prospective employers with confidence, and also to generate employment. Prof Mashudu C Mashige Department of Applied Languages For admission to the Master of Technology programme, a B Tech: Language Practice, BA (Hons) (Languages) or an equivalent four-year qualification is required.
