WHO WE ARE

business school

    With one foot planted in the business sector and the other firmly placed in the academics, the NWU Business School has programmes relevant to students and industry executives alike. Here skills gaps are filled while addressing current economic challenges.

    At the NWU Business School we strive to change the way our students think about business. We want our students to become manager-leaders in their own right; to walk away with real-world skills, international accreditation and pioneering research.

    Our “fingerprint or footprint” in Africa, shows the unique way we offer solutions  within a wider African sphere – not only with regard to specialised education for executives but also to provide sustainable solutions or ideas for economic growth. Through this, we want to be known as the Business School leader in Africa.
