As the NWU delegation’s visit under the leadership of principal and vice-chancellor, Prof Bismark Tyobeka to the North Carolina State University (NCSU) comes to an end, it is great to reflect on the many successful and insightful engagements. What a rewarding experience. The delegation will leave the United States with a reinvigorated purpose, knowing that the NWU is on track to further grow the university’s global footprint.

A dedicated internationalisation drive is crucial for the NWU as it harnesses global expertise, fosters collaboration, and enhances research. This exchange of knowledge empowers the NWU to address the nation’s unique socio-economic challenges.

Together we will take the NWU to new audiences, we will unearth new opportunities, we will unlock hidden potential and make it flourish. We look forward to what the future holds and to achieving these exiting goals with the university’s stakeholders.
