Description
The revised Bachelor of Technology in Power Engineering degree is an industry-driven programme that aims to build a sound knowledge base and understanding in the field of Power Engineering and to equip the students with vital skills for the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The programme is designed in such a way that the graduates can adapt to the increasingly technology-driven economy, by enabling them to acquire essential skills in power engineering, innovation and entrepreneurship.
Admission Requirements
In addition to meeting the Namibia University of Science and Technology’s General Admission Requirements as spelt out in the general rules, candidates must have at least 30 points on the Admission Point Scale (see Appendix 3), counting up to five subjects that must include Mathematics, Physical Science and English; with a minimum of grade 3 in Mathematics and Physical Science at Grade 12/NSSC Higher Level or with a minimum A symbol in Mathematics, Physical Science and English at Grade 12/NSSC Ordinary Level. Candidates who do not meet the minimum requirements for English, but who meet all other admission requirements, may be admitted into the programme on condition that they register for the institutional English courses that are pre-requisites to English for Academic Purposes, based on their NSSC Higher/ordinary level (or equivalent) English grades. If a candidate does not have Physical Science but has Physics or a “Physics equivalent” subject, the Registrar may, upon recommendation from the Head of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering approve registration of the candidate.
