Pretoria

Get to know Pretoria campus.

Overview

The Inscape Pretoria campus is the largest Inscape campus, located in the Menlyn Maine Design Hub, Pretoria's first green precinct. The city provides a thriving environment that embraces design, culture, art, music, theater and sport. This campus offers the widest range of design specialisations. The area hosts large conferences, shows and expos, including the Homemakers Expo. The campus is accessible by car, as it is close to the N1 highway. For those using public transport, there are taxi and Gautrain bus pick up points within walking distance from the campus.

Culture

The Pretoria campus hums with activity, movement and diversity, with students drawn from Pretoria and the Northern provinces of South Africa. Students have easy access to the Menlyn Maine Design Hub with its wealth of green buildings, entertainment arenas, malls and shops.

The average day at Inscape Pretoria sees students balancing hard work and play. Lecturers actively facilitate classes and students are engaged, energetic, vocal and collaborative. The lecturers and staff at Inscape Pretoria have built active relationships with local design businesses and suppliers, and students benefit from outings, industry visits, site visits and talks from leading designers and creatives.

The Student Representative Council (SRC) on the campus ensures that social aspects of campus life are taken care of. At Inscape we strive to create future design innovators and leaders in their respective fields and encourage students to have some fun along the way.

Campus Life

The Pretoria campus boasts ten studios equipped with 360deg speakers, Apple/Lenovo computers and HD projectors, plus three specialist venues that cater for the audio visual, fashion design and jewellery design courses. In addition, a fully equipped workshop provides students with the opportunity to experiment with making design products. A well-stocked library, plus a sample library encourage students to read, as well as look, touch and test materials. There is a full canteen in the large atrium where students gather to eat, drink coffee and collaborate on projects.

The campus is open from 06:00 to 20:00 Monday to Saturday. Students take full advantage of the free Wi-Fi on campus which allows them to research using the online library, access Lynda.com tutorials and check their assignments on Grammarly.
