SWEEP Chapter launch expands entrepreneurship support at TUT
The launch and formal recognition of the Student Women Economic Empowerment Programme (SWEEP) Chapter at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) is a significant achievement in the institution's ongoing commitment to inclusivity, gender transformation and the advancement of women in innovation and entrepreneurship.
‘Entrepreneurship is most effective response to youth unemployment’
Speaking at the 2026 annual Dr Sam Nzima Memorial lecture on 16 June 2026, Vice-Chancellor and Principal, Prof Tinyiko Maluleke, reemphasised the University’s commitment to producing graduates who are ready to create jobs rather than looking for employment. With just six months into the implementation of the Tshwane University of Technology’s (TUT) new Institutional Strategic Plan 2026-2035 centred on entrepreneurship, Prof Maluleke’s remarks are as timely as they are on point.
