The Diploma in Sustainable Horticulture and Landscaping at DUT develops graduates capable of planning, developing, and managing plant nurseries and sustainable landscapes across commercial, community, and amenity contexts. South Africa's rich biodiversity and growing demand for eco-conscious landscaping creates career opportunities in municipalities, golf courses, residential estates, and conservation projects. The three-year programme combines two years of formal study with a six-month structured practical component at DUT's School of Horticulture and six months of industry mentorship.
