We’re living through a time of amazing technological change. So amazing, in fact, that it’s been called a revolution – the Fourth Industrial Revolution, or 4IR, to be exact. It’s a revolution that is already changing everything from the way we work, the way we create and consume entertainment, to our concepts of privacy, medical practice, functional technologies for the disabled, grocery buying and perhaps, most importantly, the ways we teach and learn.
4IR is taking us into a new future, unimagined until just a few short years ago. And if you want to have a say in what that future is going to look like, and to ensure that your voice and your views are based in confidence and knowledge, then the place to start is with the imagination. That’s why, at UJ, as a 4IR thought-leader in Africa, we say that an education with us is the best way to get all the confidence and knowledge you need. And that’s because at UJ we haven’t just looked at the future, we think about it again and again, because we believe that the future belongs to those who reimagine it.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution
“…a technological revolution that will fundamentally alter the way we live, work, and relate to another.”
Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum
Heralds a New World
There are many jobs and activities which we take for granted today, that may cease to exist as 4IR takes hold.
Advance Your Ability
To Make it the Way you Want It
Looking only at the promise of 4IR, without studying and understanding its potential pitfalls, would be both dangerous and foolish. That’s why at UJ, you will have the opportunity to learn and examine the promises of this new future means on both an individual and a societal level.
And that’s why, with the skills you acquire at UJ, you will be able to maximise your opportunity to contribute creatively and productively to a future that will look the way you would like it to.
