📢 Exciting International Collaboration at NWU! 🌍📚
The North-West University recently had the privilege of hosting a delegation from Kohinoor Business School, Mumbai, for an enriching student exchange programme from 23 February to 4 March 2025. The delegation included eight master's students and two academics. The visit featured academic lectures, research discussions, industry visits, and cultural experiences across our Potchefstroom and Vanderbijlpark campuses.
Key highlights included engaging guest lectures, insightful research collaboration meetings, and memorable excursions, including a visit to the South Deep Gold Mine and the historic Mandela House.
The program successfully fostered academic collaboration, cultural exchange, and industry engagement, strengthening ties between NWU and KBS. This visit laid the foundation for future partnerships in research, student exchanges, and academic development. This collaboration highlights NWU’s commitment to international engagement and the advancement of global education and research.

Proud to have represented the WorkWell Research Unit at the NWU Research & Innovation Colloquium held at Sun City! Great to see faculty showcasing their contribution to science.
