The Diploma in Industrial Physics at TUT (Arcadia Campus) applies the principles of physics to industrial and technological contexts, with specialisations in photonics and nuclear technology. Photonics graduates work in laser, optical instrument, and non-destructive testing industries, while nuclear technology graduates work in radiation protection, nuclear power, and waste management. South Africa operates the continent's only nuclear power station at Koeberg and has active nuclear research programmes at the South African Nuclear Energy Corporation (NECSA) in Pelindaba.
