The North-West University (NWU) is a prominent academic institution located in South Africa, with campuses spread across the Gauteng and North-West province. Established in 2004 through the merger of three universities, namely Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education, the University of North-West, and the Vaal Triangle Technikon, the NWU has since evolved into a dynamic and comprehensive institution dedicated to academic excellence, research, and community engagement.
