Solidarity-owned private Afrikaans university Akademia is launching a campus for full-time students in the Western Cape.

Akademia expects the new facility to be ready by 2026, adding to its two full-time campuses in Centurion.

Akademia said the decision to establish a full-time campus in the province was informed by thorough demographic research.“This reality speaks to the institution’s reason for being as an independent higher education institution that is intimately connected to the Afrikaans language and culture,” Akademia said.

There are no specific timelines for the opening of the campus. However, Visser assured that the institution was hard at work behind the scenes to ensure the chosen facility met the necessary infrastructure and capacity requirements. From 2012 to 2022, Akademia grew its student intake from forty to 2,350, staff from five to nearly 200, and courses from four to 17.First launched in June 2022 in conjunction with the rollout of Akademia’s Faculty of Natural Sciences, the course was benchmarked against curricula of other leading Computer Science Departments in South Africa, including those at Stellenbosch University and the University of Pretoria.
