The extended curriculum programme for Dip (Logistics) studies provides alternative university access to students who have the potential to succeed, but do not meet the minimum admission requirements for the mainstream programme. The purpose of the programme is to integrate additional academic support and skills development with mainstream courses in order to prepare the student for successful completion of the relevant Diploma.

Mechatronic Engineering is a multidisciplinary branch of engineering that includes a combination of precision mechanical engineering, electronics and computer systems. A typical mechatronic system is characterised by close integration of computer controllers, mechanical components, electrical sensors, mechanical and electrical actuators and software into products and systems useful to man and society. In order to combine all these elements in an optimal way (cost- effective, flexible, and with the highest performance), mechatronic engineers must have insight in each of these disciplines. Mechatronic Engineering is a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The programme provides students with a thorough grounding in mathematics, basic sciences, engineering sciences, engineering modelling and engineering design together with the abilities to enable application in fields of emerging knowledge.
