The dataset underpinned an MEd dissertation titled "Perceptions of lecturers who apply blended learning in a Faculty of Science." Universities of Technology are renowned for their career-focused education, which constitutes a key component of the workforce and economic strategy of South Africa. Significant progress has been made to develop and utilise alternative instructional technologies. This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of lecturing staff (participants from Life Science departments) regarding the usefulness of the implementation and the ease of utilisation of blended learning. Digital questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were used as measuring instruments to determine the perceptions of participants. Inductive thematic analysis was used to generate codes (quirks) from the information obtained. A modified conceptual framework highlighted seven (7) main themes and forty-three (43) sub-themes arising from these codes. The research questions were adequately addressed by the recorded results. The names used in the dataset are pseudonyms to adhere to the POPI Act.
