The Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) and Department of Science and Technology (DST) have an existing Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) covering a number of areas of collaboration, including research and issues linked to academic planning for scarce skills.
It is the responsibility of the Council for Higher Education, through its Accreditation Directorate, to evaluate and accredit the programmes and the National Reviews Directorate, to engage with stakeholders, including government departments, on curriculum content.
The DHET provides assistance and guidance towards the formal approval of the programmes and ultimate inclusion of new academic programmes and qualifications on the universities’ programme and qualification mixes (PQMs).
