EEN UNIVERSITEIT, DRIE KAMPUSSE, JOU KEUSE! – NWU Legends
November 29, 2016November 29, 2016	EEN UNIVERSITEIT, DRIE KAMPUSSE, JOU KEUSE!	Die gees van Noordwes-Universiteit word weerspieël in die manier waarop ons JOU TOEKOMS help ontsluit en JOU in staat stel om JOU DROME waar te maak. Of jy nou swart, wit, pienk of pers is, ons gee om vir jou en jou drome en aspirasies. En ons slagspreuk bevestig dit: Dit begin alles hier
Die Noordwes-Universiteit (NWU) bestaan egter nie net uit die PUK-kampus in Potchefstroom nie. Ons het ook kampusse in Mafikeng en Vanderbijlpark (oftewel die Vaaldriehoekkampus).
Die Potchefstroomkampus is verreweg die grootste en oudste van die drie kampusse – met 50 600 geregistreerde studente in 2016 (21 346 voltydse studente op kampus en 29 254 studente wat vir afstandsprogramme ingeskryf was). Op die PUK-kampus word die meeste voltydse voorgraadse klasse in Afrikaans aangebied, maar ons maak ook vir Engelssprekendes voorsiening. Inteendeel, meer as 80% van ons voorgraadse programme word óf in Engels aangebied óf die Afrikaanse klasse word in die lokale deur verteenwoordigers van die NWU Opvoedkundige Tolkdienste na Engels vertaal. Van al drie NWU-kampusse is die Potchefstroomkampus verantwoordelik vir die meeste navorsingsuitsette en Nasionale Navorsingstigting-gegradeerde navorsers.

Die Mafikengkampus is in die hoofstad van die Noordwesprovinsie geleë en spog met ’n ware internasionale karakter en afmosfeer deurdat 424 studente uit 24 verskillende lande vanjaar daar ingeskryf was. Dit is die tweede grootste NWU-kampus, met 11 547 ingeskrewe studente in 2016 (waarvan 507 vir afstandsprogramme geregistreer was). Mafikeng se buitestedelike ligging leen homself tot ’n sterk fokus op landelike ontwikkeling ten opsigte van sy akademiese programme.
Die pragtige Vaaldriehoekkampus in Gauteng is geleë in ’n natuurreservaat op die oewer van die Vaalrivier waar ’n verskeidenheid van wildspesies los rondloop op die kampus. Die studenteliggaam is kultureel divers en het in 2016 uit 7 589 studente bestaan. Gesetel in een van Gauteng se industriële hartlande dra hierdie kampus se akademiese programme grootliks by tot die vaardighede, kennis en ekonomiese groei van die streek.
ONE UNIVERSITY, THREE CAMPUSES, YOUR CHOICE!
The spirit of North-West University is reflected in the way we unlock YOUR FUTURE and enable YOU to realise YOUR DREAMS. Whether you’re black, white, pink or purple, we care about your dreams and aspirations. And our slogan confirms it: It all starts here
The North-West University (NWU) consists of more than just the PUK campus in Potchefstroom. We also have campuses in Mafikeng and Vanderbijlpark (referred to as the Vaal Triangle campus).
The leafy Potchefstroom Campus is by far the biggest and oldest of the three campuses – with 50 600 registered students in 2016 (21 346 of which were full-time students on campus, while the remaining 29 254 students were enrolled for distance learning).
Although most full-time undergraduate classes are taught in Afrikaans, the PUK campus caters for English-speaking students as well. In fact, more than 80% of undergraduate programs are either taught in English or the Afrikaans medium classes are translated into English (in class) by our translators from the NWU Educational Interpreting Services. Of the three NWU campuses, the Potchefstroom campus accounts for the majority of NWU’s research output and National Research Foundation-rated researchers.

The Mafikeng Campus is located in the capital of the North West Province and boasts a truly international ambience with 424 students from 24 different nations enrolled there in 2016. It is the second largest NWU campus with 11 547 students registered in 2016 (of which 507 were distance learners). Mafikeng’s peri-urban location makes it ideal for the academic programs of this campus to focus strongly on rural development in the area.
The picturesque Vaal Triangle Campus in Gauteng is situated in a nature reserve on the banks of the Vaal River where various species of game roam freely on the campus. The student body is culturally diverse and had 7 589 registered students in 2016. Located in one of Gauteng’s industrial hubs, the academic programs of this campus contribute greatly to the skills, knowledge and economic growth of the region.
