TjamaTjivikua Submitted by programsdirector on Fri, 03/12/2010 - 12:12.
Born on 27 July 1958 at Otjomupanda, Otjozundjupa Region, Namibia, Dr. TjamaTjivikua is one of 12 children born to a teacher (father) and a nurse (mother). He grew up in Oruuua in the then Ovitoto Reserve, and started primary school in 1967 at St. Barnabas in the Old Location, Windhoek. His family moved to Katutura at the end of the forced removal of blacks from Old Location. He continued with primary education in Katutura (1968-1969) at the now Berthold Himumuine Primary School, then moved to Otjinene Primary School (1970-1973) when his father became the founding principal at Okondjatu Primary School. He completed Standard 6 (Grade 8) there in 1973 and then moved to Okakarara Secondary School (1974-1975), and finally to Augustineum Secondary School (1976-1978) in Windhoek. Upon completion of high school, Dr. Tjivikua worked at the main branch of Barclays Bank (now First National bank) in Windhoek as a Waste Clerk.
During his employment, Dr. Tjivikua sought to study in the U.S.A. and left Namibia in June 1979. Armed with the United Nations Scholarship provided by the U.N. High Commission for Namibia, he studied Chemistry at Rockland Community College (1979-1980) and then Lincoln University (1980-1983), where he graduated cum laude (B.A. with many awards and honours). He pursued graduate studies at the University of Lowell (now University of Massachusetts, Lowell) (M.S., 1983-1985), then University of Pittsburgh (Ph.D., 1985-1990). He completed his thesis on molecular recognition in organic chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1989-1990). His scientific work, which triggered a media trifecta, received wide international coverage and has been cited in scientific journals and other magazines as it has added new intelligence to the body of scientific knowledge.
Dr. Tjivikua worked as Teaching Assistant and Researcher while a student, and taught at Lincoln University, Pennsylvania as Assistant Professor of Chemistry (1990-1995) before returning to assume the post of Founding Rector at the Polytechnic of Namibia in 1995, where he has now served for nearly 15 years. Professor Tjivikua is a man of first: he is the first in his family to graduate at all degree levels, and in Namibia probably the first doctorate in pure (natural) science, one of the few second-generation Namibian doctorates, and one of first doctoral honorees at his age in 2006. Dr. Tjivikua has remained a dedicated educator and citizen and an advocate of productivity, efficiency, academic excellence, technology, entrepreneurship and innovation. He has served on national bodies such as the National Planning Commission (1998-2006), Namibia Qualifications Authority (1997-present), Namibia Council for Higher Education (2006-present) and several national trusts dedicated to the advancement of society, and he holds several business interests such as in the financial sector and farming.
Dr. Tjivikua’s inspirational and visionary leadership is evident in the following awards and honours bestowed on him: Bank Windhoek Business Communicator of the Year Award (2008); D.Sc (HonorisCausa) for exceptional contributions to the development of higher education in Namibia (2006) – Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), U.S.A.; Life Fellow: Centres for Leadership and Public Values, University of Cape Town and Duke University (2005); International Biographical Centre, Who’s Who in the 21st Century 2001; and Outstanding Young Man of America (1985). As a student, he received the following awards: American Chemical Society Award, Lincoln University (1983) - for being the best chemistry graduate in his university; Jessie B. Plummer Memorial Medal, Lincoln University (1983); Bradley Gold Medal, Lincoln University (1983), James Birnie Memorial Award, Lincoln University (1983), Wilbert A. Tatum - Saligrama C. Subbarao Award, Lincoln University (1983); Special Service Award, Lincoln University (1982, 1983); and Citations in German, Lincoln University (1981, 1982).
Polytechnic becoming one of Africa’s leading science and technology universities, innovation and entrepreneurship have become pillars of the institution’s development strategy as well as focal areas of its national and regional development efforts, particularly in the niche areas and where potential exists to make a unique and lasting impact. The Polytechnic has been recognized for several years since 2002 as the best tertiary education institution in Namibia in the annual Public Management Review (PMR) and won the Diamond Arrow Award (Top Price) in 2009. The Polytechnic has won several international awards in disciplines such as business, information technology, journalism and media technology, and geo-information systems: Unesco Centre of Excellence in Journalism/Media Technology (2007) – one of 12 journalism excellence centres in Africa; Cisco Global Recognition Award for Excellence in Teaching (2007) - being the only Sub-Saharan institution to receive the award; Special Achievement Award in Geographic Information System (GIS) Education - San Diego, California, USA - for its extraordinary contributions to the global society by raising the quality of GIS education and training in Africa; Cisco Best Local Academy Award (2009) - being one of only two African institutions to receive the award; and the prestigious Eduniversal Palms Award International Scientific Committee of Eduniversal - recognizing the Polytechnic’s School of Business and Management (SBM) as one of the world’s most influential business schools amongst one thousand best business schools from over 150 countries (2009).
Dr. Tjivikua’s development efforts are concentrated on aligning the Polytechnic’s community outreach and national development programmes with key objectives articulated in Namibia’s national development plans (NDPs) and Vision 2030, thus the establishment of several Centres of Excellence: Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL); Centre for Entrepreneurial Development (CED); Centre for Open and Lifelong Learning (COLL); Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Institute (REEEI); the Namibian-German Centre for Logistics (NGCL); and the Namibia Business Innovation Centre (NBIC), the latter a national hub for the stimulation and nurturing of creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship and technological development. This is strong evidence of his determination to set the Polytechnic as a key driver of the transformation needed to propel Namibia to high standards of global economic competitiveness.
Under Dr. Tjivikua’s leadership, good corporate governance and performance have always been hallmarks of the Polytechnic of Namibia. This is evident in the significant growth of the institution over the past fifteen years: the institution has had unqualified financial audits; academic programmes increased from 23 to more than 100, including several internationally recognised Master’s degrees; the infrastructure grew in value from approximately N$ 30 million to more than N$ 600 million; enrolment (student numbers) increased from approximately 2 500 in 1996 to about 11 000 in 2010; and the staff complement has grown from about 130 to about 670. The institution has many international partnerships, which entail institutional cooperation, faculty and student exchanges, and joint research.
In the FinWeek Magazine article titled: The crème de la crème (28 September 2006), Dr. Tjivikua was recognized in a national survey as one of the 12 most prominent and respected members of the Namibian society, “for having set up an excellent institution”. All in all, this is a profile of a visionary and achiever.
