LIMEBEER, David J.N.  y  DWOLATZKY, Barry. Some significant South African contributions to engineering. S. Afr. j. sci. [online]. 2022, vol.118, n.7-8, pp.1-3. ISSN 1996-7489.  https://doi.org/10.17159/sajs.2022/13900.

SIGNIFICANCE: To mark the centenary of the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits), we review several major engineering achievements made over the last century by South African citizens, or individuals educated in South Africa -several of these contributions were made by Wits graduates and academic staff members. Equally significant are some outstanding contributions to engineering education. There is no sense in which this review is exhaustive but is more a reflection of the authors' personal interests and expertise.

Palabras clave : Wits centenary; major engineering achievements; engineering education.
