Wits University – as it is commonly known – is a public research university based in Johannesburg.
It was founded as a school of mining – the region is the most abundant with gold of any location worldwide.
The university grew significantly in the late 20th century and the campus expanding with many new buildings.
That time was also a period of protest against apartheid policies, and the university campus was fairly divided. Nonetheless, many prominent black leaders graduated from the university.
There are five campuses, with two joined by a walkway. The campuses are home to student residences, including female-only dorms, and academic departments.
Academic research and teaching is spread across five faculties: commerce, engineering and the built environment, health sciences, law and management, science and humanities.
