The Bachelor of Applied Science in Textile Science at DUT is a three-year qualification preparing specialists for the industrial manufacture of textile fibres, yarns, and fabrics, including dyeing, printing, and finishing processes. South Africa's textile and clothing industry, though restructured in recent decades, still employs thousands and relies on technically trained professionals for quality management, product development, and production optimisation. Students choose between Wet and Dry specialisations in the final year, developing deep expertise in either chemical processing or manufacturing engineering.
