The 'Gang of Greats' creative concept, highlighted the power of great minds in a liberating manner, suggesting that similar potential could be unlocked in students enrolling at the University of Johannesburg (UJ). This concept subsequently evolved into the current campaign targeted at postgraduates and highlighting great achievements of 'sons and daughters' of UJ that have made significant strides in particular sectors of society.
"The University of Johannesburg is thrilled to have made its mark in the international higher education marketing arena. We believe this is a first for any higher education institution in Africa and certainly a feather in the university's cap," says Lesmarie Bentley-Steyn, senior manager: marketing and brand, UJ.
