History
Natal Technical Institute (later Technikon Natal) was founded by Dr Samuel George Campbell in 1907. In 1912, three new premises were opened in Warwick Avenue, Smith Street and West Street along with their official crest and motto; Per Adua Ad Alta.
Legislation of 1967 was a watershed for education in South Africa as it moved to provide exclusively for the needs of the white population group.
In August 1991, the approval of the Certification Council for Technikon Education authorized Technikon Natal to issue its own certificates or diplomas to graduates, representing an important development for technikons.
For several years, the Technikon ran a Drama department.
For more information, see Natal Technikon Department of Drama.
In 2002, Technikon Natal and ML Sultan Technikon merged, into what was initially known as the Durban Institute of Technology. It was later called the Durban University of Technology (DUT), a multi-campus university situated in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
