The university recognizes that not everyone has the opportunity to study full-time on the main campus. As a result, selected learning programs are available at CUT’s Welkom Campus. Some learning programs can also be pursued electronically via the internet using modern technology. CUT is thus living up to its status and reputation as a technological university.
