The Polytechnic of Namibia (PON) is contributing to wealth creation through

excellence in technology-oriented career and professional education and training,

applied research and service. As an academic community, we continuously strive

to produce enhanced economic utility through scholarly activities, as expressed in

discovering, preserving and applying knowledge.

The Institution was established in 1994 through an Act of Parliament and

is situated in the heart of the City of Windhoek, Namibia. On 12 December

2012 Cabinet resolved that the Polytechnic should be renamed to the Namibia

University of Science and Technology. The transformation has been set in motion

in Parliament and final approval by the President of Namibia is expected to be a

formality in 2015.

The PoN Academic Structure consists of 7 Schools/Faculties namely, the Schools

of Computing and Informatics, Engineering, Health and Applied Sciences, Human

Sciences, Management Sciences, Natural Resources and Spatial Sciences and the

Harold Pupkewitz Graduate School of Business.

Currently, more than 12,000 students are enrolled to study on a full-time, part-time

and distance education basis. PoN qualifications are nationally and internationally

recognised through a rigorous development and approval process including

benchmarking and quality assurance.

All students are equipped with relevant computer skills and knowledge of

information systems. The campus has wireless connections in strategic places

enabling students to use their own computers to access the Student Kiosk,

Webmail and Internet. With almost 2 000 computers available in computer labs

all over the main campus and regional centres, students can use these facilities to

quickly access learning resources.

Did

you know?

The Polytechnic of Namibia has dominated the higher education sector in Namibia in recent years and has established a national,

regional and international reputation of quality and excellence. This is reflected

by the fact that between 2002 and 2008, the Poly walked away with six

PMR Golden Arrow Awards as

the Best Higher Education/

Tertiary Education Institution in Namibia.

The Poly has won the Diamond Arrow Award

(top award) in this category every year

since 2009.

PoN Admission Point Scale

We use the PoN Admission Point Scale to facilitate admission based on your

school-leaving results. We convert your school-school-leaving subject symbols or percentages into

points, then we add these points up to see if you have obtained the minimum number

of points required to be considered for entry into your preferred programme of study.

The National Qualifications Framework (NQF)

The National Qualifications Framework is a register of all relevant and

legal qualifications in Namibia kept by the Namibia Qualifications

Authority. The NQF is made up of ten levels, each representing a

different level of complexity in learning and/or the application of

knowledge and skills learnt. The Polytechnic of Namibia is leading the

way in registering its qualifications on the NQF.

What is the difference between Bachelor of Technology (BTech) and

Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) programmes?

Bachelor of Technology degrees are ideal for students who like science,

math and computers and who are analytical and want to know how

things work. Teaching methods are more hands-on experimentation and

demonstration during lectures. With a Bachelor of Technology degree you will

be an engineering technologist capable of working in both hands-on roles and

supervisory or management positions within the engineering industry.

Bachelor of Engineering degrees are ideal for students with mathematical

and logical strengths. Teaching methods are aimed at developing and

understanding mathematical foundations related to a specific engineering

discipline. After completion of the BEng degree a student must register with

the Engineering Council of Namibia as a Professional Engineer and follow

careers ranging from design, project management, policy development,

business and financial analysis to various management positions.
