What you should know about NORTH WEST UNIVERSITY

Training in Potchefstroom, University in Potchefstroom

The NWU Leadership Summit brings together some of South Africa’s most brilliant business and public sector minds to share their leadership insights. The aim of the NWU Leadership Summit is to create a platform from which intellectual capital can be shared and, by doing so, contribute towards sustainable and innovative leadership in business, government and civil society. By means of the Summit, individuals will be afforded the invaluable opportunity for first-hand interaction with other leaders who have their fingers on the pulse of economic and management issues. In today’s fast paced business environment, knowledge sharing is of utmost importance. The vision of the summit is to support the sustainable future, growth, and development of South Africa and Africa by exploring best-practices, ideas, and lessons from visionary, responsible, and forward-thinking leaders. Why is mathematics being singled out as the main culprit for poor pass rates? The spirit of the university is reflected in the way we unlock the future for people and enable them to make their dreams come true. This spirit runs across all our activities and operations, from our academic offerings and research to our student body, community engagement and sports achievements. The NWU is committed to function as a unitary, integrated multi-campus university that will enable equity, redress and globally competitive teaching and research across all campuses. In our case, this saw a historically white university and a historically black university merging to create a new university where South Africans from all walks of life have come together. The historically black university was the former University of North-West, whose students were mostly black people from rural communities. The historically white university was the Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education, whose students were mostly white Afrikaans people from Christian backgrounds. The transition to the unified NWU has been hailed as one of the most successful and stable higher education mergers in South Africa. Each year since the merger, the NWU has produced a healthy financial surplus, improved student pass rates, increased research output and risen in the corporate governance rankings for South African universities. This stability reflects the culture of consultation at the NWU, our clear vision, values and mission, our effective governance and leadership, and the well-defined strategic and operational plans we have made to take the NWU into the future.
