University Of Zululand Faculty Of Arts, The Faculty of Arts is the largest Faculty at the University of Zululand, thus representing the largest number of enrolled students and the highest student-to-staff ratio. The 18 departments in the Faculty cover a wide range of fields including language and linguistics to social sciences and the humanities.
The Faculty of Arts remains dedicated to excellence and innovation in all fields and supports many research programmes and SAPSE recognised journals. The Faculty’s role reflects the central role of the University of Zululand; namely tuition, research and community service particularly in humanities and social sciences.
The Faculty of Arts offers a formative BA, which will accommodate students who have not yet decided on a career they want to pursue. After a foundational first-year, students can choose subjects to study in greater depth, such as the languages, culture, history, philosophy and the performing arts. The degree will provide students with a broad grounding of skills, abilities, knowledge, understanding and awareness, and thus equip them with a background that will be useful to them as future employees and/or entrepreneurs.
