At Miva Open University, we are constantly seeking new ways to give our students a world-class, future-ready education. That’s why we’re excited to announce our partnership with ChipMango, a microchip design and e-learning company committed to developing the next generation of semiconductor engineers.
This collaboration marks a significant advancement in our mission to prepare people for opportunity and improve society through education.
What This Partnership Means for Miva
Partnering with ChipMango enables Miva to expand the depth and reach of our School of Computing by integrating advanced microchip design, verification, and AI-driven hardware learning into our curriculum. This strengthens Miva’s position as one of Africa’s leading technology-focused universities, where students not only study theory but also gain the skills and exposure needed to compete globally.
Through this collaboration, our computing students will now have access to ChipMango’s industry-tested curriculum, developed by experienced semiconductor engineers. This means hands-on learning, practical simulations, and opportunities to work on real-world chip design projects, all from within Miva’s flexible online learning environment.
What It Means for Our Students
For Miva students, this partnership opens up an entirely new field of opportunity. The semiconductor industry is one of the most competitive and valuable sectors in global technology (valued at $681.05 billion in 2024 and projected to grow from $755.28 billion in 2025 to $2 trillion by 2032, according to Fortune Business Insights), and African participation in this field has been limited—until now.
With ChipMango’s expertise, our students can:
- Learn directly from professionals working in chip design and verification.
- Earn recognised certifications that strengthen their portfolios and global employability.
- Gain hands-on experience in designing the hardware that powers modern technology.
- Access new career pathways in a sector that’s critical to AI, robotics, and advanced computing.
Aniekeme Umoh, Chief Operating Officer, Miva Open University, stated, “At Miva, our focus has always been to make higher education accessible, relevant, and impactful. Partnering with ChipMango allows us to deliver world-class semiconductor training and give students a pathway to participate in one of the most important industries shaping the global economy.”
Jovan Andjelich, co-founder and COO of ChipMango, said, “Our collaboration with Miva represents a shared vision: to make advanced semiconductor and chip design education accessible to anyone with the passion to learn. By combining Miva’s academic excellence with the global reach of the ChipMango platform, we’re enabling students to gain industry-ready skills that can compete on a world stage.”
A Step Toward Africa’s Tech Independence
This partnership is not just about technology; it’s about empowerment. Together with ChipMango, we aim to help Africa move from being a consumer of global technology to becoming a creator of it.
By integrating semiconductor education into our programmes, Miva is giving learners across the world the tools to innovate, solve local challenges, and contribute to Africa’s growing digital economy.
We’re proud to be part of this historic step toward a more inclusive and capable tech future.
