Module content

This elective deepens the study of leadership begun in the core modules by focusing primarily on the individual as a leader, rather than leadership in the abstract, with the purpose of helping the student to understand his/her own leadership impact, how to enhance it, and how to take control of the direction in which he/she is leading others. It deals with moral issues relevant to leadership decisions globally and in South Africa, with the aim of providing a basis for being responsible for the outcomes leaders produce and how to make responsible choices. The elective provides opportunity for reflection and guides students in understanding their own leadership role better and how to become better leaders in their chosen career.

University of Pretoria Programme Qualification Mix (PQM) verification project
The higher education sector has undergone an extensive alignment to the Higher Education Qualification Sub-Framework (HEQF) across all institutions in South Africa. In order to comply with the HEQSF, all institutions are legally required to participate in a national initiative led by regulatory bodies such as the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), the Council on Higher Education (CHE), and the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA). The University of Pretoria is presently engaged in an ongoing effort to align its qualifications and programmes with the HEQSF criteria. Current and prospective students should take note that changes to UP qualification and programme names, may occur as a result of the HEQSF initiative. Students are advised to contact their faculties if they have any questions.
