Thank you for attending the UCT Open Day 2025 edition which was held on Saturday, 12 April 2025. We look forward to seeing you in 2026. 

The annual UCT Open Day is aimed at high school learners in Grades 10, 11 and 12, their families and teachers.

This event presents an ideal opportunity to explore the vast range of undergraduate study options that UCT offers.

The opportunity to get information about the different academic programmes and what they involve is absolutely vital to making the best study choices.

Faculties, academic departments and support departments participate in this event, and activities include:

• lectures by academic members of staff from the various faculties
• information about financial assistance
• virtual residence tours and information about some of the facilities offered on campus.

Are you considering studying in The Faculty of Engineering & the Built Environment, but you aren’t sure it’s the right choice? This video will help you to consider your options, as well as understand the application and admissions requirements.
