Professor Mzubanzi Bismark Tyobeka, principal and vice-chancellor of the North-West University (NWU), kindly requests you to save the date for an event during which we will celebrate a visionary scholar, Professor John Makhene. Prof. Makhene played a key role towards the establishment of the former University of Bophuthatswana in Mahikeng, now one of the campuses of the NWU.
Prof. Makhene's leadership and management within the higher education sector, including his pedagogical contributions to the academic project, placed the then University of Bophuthatswana at the forefront of academic excellence and innovation.
The NWU continues to benefit from the strong foundation laid by his visionary leadership. This prestigious event will bring together colleagues, alumni, scholars, students, and friends to pay tribute to Prof. Makhene's profound impact on the academic community and beyond.
During this event, not only will his academic legacy be celebrated but also his visionary leadership, and lifelong dedication to higher education.
Full details of the event will follow soon.
