Forty teams of learners from schools across Gauteng participated in part two of the Wits Integrated Experience (WitsIE) Short Course.

The journey began in June with part one of the course, as learners embarked on a multidisciplinary real-world problem-solving exercise with guidance from the five faculties at Wits. This year, they were assigned to investigate the methane gas leak that caused an explosion on Lillian Ngoyi Street (formerly Bree Street) that rocked the Johannesburg city centre in 2023.
