About the AARU

DUT offers academic programs at a number of campuses situated in Durban and Pietermaritzburg, in the KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) province, South Africa. A popular tourist and business destination, KZN is noted for its diversity of people, but also its remarkable environmental diversity. Natural forests, imposing mountains, warm Indian Ocean beaches and subtropical climate, as well as historic battlefields and other sites of importance, all attract numerous visitors to the province.

KZN is the second most populated region in South Africa, with large rural areas. Poverty and unemployment unfortunately remain prevailing challenges across communities.
