MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Welcome to the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences & Law

The primary mandate of the Faculty is to prepare and provide learners of quality that will contribute meaningfully to

the development of the region, South Africa and neighbouring countries; equip those with interest in community

engagement with relevant scientific knowledge and skills and promote interest in and cultivate research proficiency as

a precondition for developing a critical mass of scholars and researchers in the field of education.

It is our goal to make the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law a prestigious faculty that will become a

faculty of first choice for learners, by providing reputable programmes handled by efficient professionals.

The information provided in this booklet is intended to enable you to get deeper insight into the vision and mission of

the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law, its organisational structure and programmes. The vision and

mission of the faculty is aligned with the broader vision and mission of Walter Sisulu University.

The vision of the University namely, ‘to be a leading African comprehensive university focusing on innovative

educational, research and community partnership programmes that are responsive to local, regional, national

development priorities, and cognisant of continental and international imperatives‘ resonates appropriately with that of

the HSL Faculty. The Faculty programmes are also aligned with the mission of the University which refers to the

provision of affordable, appropriate, career-focused and professional programmes that addresses rural development

and urban renewal with primary emphasis on science, technology and development studies.

The Faculty is actively involved in community engagement as the Street Law programme reaches out to communities

in rural areas like Mbekweni, Baziya, Mhlakulo as well as Ngangelizwe township. Communities also benefit from the

Legal Aid Clinic which provides free legal advice and representation where the matter goes before court. The

Department of Social Sciences has wide scope to participate in community engagement and research, and has

demonstrated this by holding a conference which was strong on population development and demography. The same

can be said of the Department of Arts which is strong on research, community engagement and the development of

African languages. With the restructured Faculty, opportunities for cooperation between the various departments of

the faculty have emerged.

In order to deliver on its mandate, the faculty has identified 4 programme focus areas, namely:

Department of Arts

Department of Social Sciences

Department of Legal Studies

Department of Social Work & Psychology

These focus areas are inter-linked and complement each other in various ways and will be developed to facilitate

articulation.

The Department of Social Sciences addresses an indispensable field of study in higher education namely, a scientific

investigation into human nature, human interaction and development. The study of such social sciences as sociology,

anthropology, political studies, criminology and administration of criminal justice and so on cannot be underestimated.


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..........................



The Department of Arts focuses on languages which are a sine qua non in any field of study. The culture of a nation

can also not be divorced from its languages and history.

The Department of Legal Studies develops students to become attorneys, magistrates, prosecutors, advocates and

legal advisers and academics. This is evidenced by the quality of self-employable learners that are carrying the flag of

the department high in their workplaces.

The Department of Social Work & Psychology focuses on developing students to become psychologists in various fields,

for example clinical and industrial psychologists, while Social Work trains students for social work.

Most of the departments in the Faculty are directed at producing professionals in fields like law, social work and

psychology.

Students in each of these departments have the opportunity to be employed in industry and in various government

departments, or to have private practice. With further education to the Masters level, students may also become

lecturers at tertiary institutions.

Plans are underway to infuse HIV/AIDS in most modules in the HSL Faculty, as well as conducting investigation into

the nature, scope and significance of Indigenous Knowledge Systems. To the latter end, the IKS degree will be

introduced once it is approved and accredited by DHET and its structures.

The Faculty is aware of the government imperative to absorb at least 1% of students who are challenged in various

forms. Each of our Departments is encouraged to meet the said quota by admitting at least 1% of its total enrolment

form challenged learners.

The faculty is committed to the pursuit of excellence through teaching and learning, community engagement and

research.

I wish the academic staff, the support staff and the students of the Faculty every success in 2015.

Professor PN Makiwane, LL.D

Dean

ADMISSION TO UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMMES

For all Bachelor’s Degree programmes, only applicants whose National Senior Certificate (NSC) results indicate that the

learner has met the requirements for admission into Bachelor’s Degree, that is Bachelors’ endorsement, may be

admitted. In the case of the old Senior Certificate, only applicants with a Matriculation Exemption endorsement will be

considered for admission.

Admission Point System (APS)

The Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law endeavours to use a point system for admissions. The achievement

levels are then translated into points for each NSC subject. Points will be used to calculate the total Admission Point

Score (APS).

The minimum APS required for a Bachelor’s degree is 26.

For the Bachelor of Laws the APS is 28.

The Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law Admissions Committee considered the administration of

admission point score as proposed by HESA. The Committee appreciates the breakdown made in the achievement

levels as this advantages a student whose performance is better than others.

On the basis of the HESA proposal the points will be awarded as in the following example:

NSC Percentage per Subject Points

91% 9.1

86% 8.6

82% 8.2

79% 7.9

64% 6.4

55% 5.5

43% 4.3

39% 3.9

31% 3.1

30% 3.0

29% 2.9


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..........................



28% 2.8

27% 2.7

26% 2.6

25% 2.5

The purpose of the above split will assist departments in admitting students according to their performance as opposed

to the previous point system where a learner who scores 70% and the one who scores 79% would both attain7 points.

It should be noted that the above scoring system excludes Life Orientation and Mathematical Literacy. Points for

these two are allocated as follows:


90 - 100% 5

80 - 89% 4

70 - 79% 3

60 - 69% 2

50 - 59% 1

40 - 49% 0

30 - 39% 0

0 - 29% 0

Admission Requirements

For Bachelor of Social Science Degree programmes, only applicants whose National Senior Certificate (NSC) results

indicate that the learner has met the requirements for admission into Bachelor’s Degree, that is Bachelors’

endorsement, may be admitted. In the case of the old Senior Certificate, only applicants with a Matriculation Exemption

endorsement will be considered for admission.

Admission Point System (APS)

The Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law endeavours to use a point system for admissions. The achievement

levels are then translated into points for each NSC subject. Points will be used to calculate the total Admission Point

Score (APS).

The minimum APS required for a Bachelor’s degree is 26.

The Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law Admissions Committee considered the administration of

admission point score as proposed by HESA. The Committee appreciates the breakdown made in the achievement

levels as this advantages a student whose performance is better than others.

On the basis of the HESA proposal the points will be awarded as in the following example:


91% 9.1

86% 8.6

82% 8.2

79% 7.9


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..........................



64% 6.4

55% 5.5

43% 4.3

39% 3.9

31% 3.1

30% 3.0

29% 2.9

28% 2.8

27% 2.7

26% 2.6

25% 2.5

The purpose of the above split will assist departments in admitting students according to their performance as opposed

to the previous point system where a learner who scores 70% and the one who scores 79% would both attain7 points.

It should be noted that the above scoring system excludes Life Orientation and Mathematical Literacy. Points for

these two are allocated as follows:


90 - 100% 5

80 - 89% 4

70 - 79% 3

60 - 69% 2

50 - 59% 1

40 - 49% 0

equip participating students with a firm academic foundation that will enable them to successfully complete the BSOCSC

in the above listed five Major areas. Additionally there are support subjects in the form of academic literacy, lifestyle

management and computer skills, to support the foundational learning requirements of the extended programme

students. The tests, assignments, examinations and any other form of assessment method used to evaluate the

students of the extended programme are also subjected to the normal quality requirements of the university regulations

that are appropriate to higher education.

Qualification specific Regulations

A student shall only be permitted to write an examination in a subject if the student obtains a minimum semester

or year mark of 40% in the subject concerned.

The semester or year mark shall be determined by continuous evaluation, which shall include, inter alia, tests,

assignments and practical tasks.

In order to complete a course a student shall obtain at least 40% of the marks in every paper of the examination

and at least 50% of the total year mark and the examination combined in the ratio 60:40.

A student who obtains 75% of the marks at the first attempt in a course/module shall be awarded a pass with a

distinction in that course/module

In order to complete a course in which Continuous Assessment is used as the form of evaluation a student should

obtain an average of at least 50% marks from the tests, assignments and library projects given throughout the
