PhD Architecture

The Faculty of Engineering, Built Environment, and Information Technology at the University of Pretoria is a leading source of graduates in the engineering, built environment, and information technology professions. We achieve this by a focus on research to drive innovative and inquiry-led teaching for educating and positioning our students to be leaders in their professions. The Faculty has extensive and cutting-edge teaching, learning, and laboratory facilities integrated with the excellent suite of facilities and services offered by the University. We facilitate access to our qualifications through our extended programs but expect our students to excel and develop as future professionals through our program offerings. We invite you to consider enrolling in one of our programs if you share our vision of excellence and want to position yourself as a leader in the professions that we support.

The Faculty is organized into four schools: the School of Engineering, the School for the Built Environment, the School of Information Technology, and the Graduate School of Technology Management. The School of Engineering is the largest of its kind in the country in terms of student numbers, graduates, and research contributions and offers programs in all the major engineering disciplines with many specializations also offered at undergraduate and graduate levels.

The University of Pretoria aims to be internationally competitive while also locally relevant. Advisory boards at both faculty and departmental levels promote alignment and excellence in our teaching and research activities. Where applicable and available our programmes are accredited by statutory and professional bodies at both national and international levels.
