Six pillars of vision for UNIZA: A concrete plan for the university of the future, built on excellence, innovation, and community.
Together we create the university – students, teachers, researchers and staff. I want each of us to be able to say: We are proud to be UNIZA.
Our university must provide modern, demanding and fair education. We want every student and teacher to feel they are growing here – personally and professionally.


We are a university that creates knowledge, not just mediates it. We support doctoral students, supervisors and young research teams.
The university is a community, not an administrative structure. We collaborate across faculties, departments and cities where we operate.


Innovations don't arise by themselves – they are created by space, trust and support. We strengthen knowledge transfer for mutual benefit.
The university should be a place where everyone can grow – regardless of origin, year, field or life situation.


We want a university we are proud of not only for its results, but also for its culture. A place where people feel safe, respected and involved.
This vision is not just about one person – it's about all of us who believe in UNIZA's potential. Join me in building the university of the future.
