The NWU is committed to functioning as a unitary, integrated, multi-campus university that enables equity, redress, and globally competitive teaching and research across all three of our campuses.
Our core activities, teaching-learning and research, are intertwined with community engagement and innovation in our eight faculties, most of which serve both distance and contact students.
The NWU offers more than just an education; we offer people a place in the world. Academically, students benefit from great choice and flexibility, enabling them to fulfill their potential and start preparing for their careers.
Through collaboration with other universities and institutions internationally, we are part of the global higher education community.
Our internationalization activities include student and staff exchange and cooperation in academic, research, cultural, and sports matters.
