Additional modules are therefore introduced at S1 and S2 levels, hence the extended time period for the completion of this programme. In order to achieve its purpose the programme aims to: • Provide students “at risk” with a viable platform to successfully undertake civil engineering studies at tertiary education level. • Provide students from disadvantaged educational backgrounds with an adequate level of foundational competence which is based on specific and discipline-related knowledge. • Improve the retention and throughput of academically disadvantaged students entering the mainstream programme. • Provide a learning environment where the gap in terms of academically disadvantaged student needs and the student support required are bridged. • Provide a student who has the potential to succeed with Civil Engineering studies at tertiary level with an opportunity to: • gain a contextualized understanding of the field of Civil Engineering; • develop the knowledge and skills to engage in basic Civil Engineering practices effectively; • become familiar with the application of basic knowledge and skills in the Civil Engineering discipline. • Ensure that the required educational quality standards in teaching and learning are maintained while at the same time achieving the above aims. The rationale for the National Diploma: Engineering: Civil Extended Curriculum Programme is therefore essentially the same as for the three year National Diploma: Engineering: Civil programme but is specifically designed in such a way to benefit students by providing support to students to obtain essential skills for completion of the National Diploma: Engineering: Civil. Students successfully completing the Extended Curriculum Programme will thus be able to: • Develop a contextualised understanding of the field of Civil Engineering. • Develop the knowledge and skills to engage in Civil Engineering practices effectively. 59 2012 PROSPECTUS
