They also have the added advantage of having access to various facilities during school trips. Some of which include: Attending the two day conference – Agile in Africa, where students had the opportunity to participate in the conference; Visiting the Kofi Annan Centre, where students had the opportunity to learn about new networking technology and taking part in the MEST Hackathon, where students were put into teams to solve various problems by building a prototype.
It’s not all work and no play – we have a serious side and a playful side when it comes to our clubs and societies. There is the Electronics Gaming Society as well as a Computer Science Club which consists of students coming together to play video games and learning how computers can solve social issues
“We’ve taken particular care to attract women into our programme, believing that the inclusion of talented women in science and technology has huge potential for development in West Africa.

It is a supportive community which allows for networking amongst peers and other professionals from a legal background. Each year, the university dedicates a week to the law students entitled ‘Law Week’ (this is hosted by the Law Society). During this week the Law Society has various excursions, participates in moot courts judged by Senior Legal minds, host a student symposium – where they present different papers and articles as well as present their point of view and enjoy a day out of Accra to network with each other. The week is crowned off with a formal Law Week dinner. “Law week provides an opportunity for students from our Law Society have the opportunity to express themselves and enhance their critical thinking and presentation skills. It’s great! It’s not all work and no play. Last year we spent the week having debates, organising symposia and participated in a moot court but we also took a day off to let off steam at the beach – it was fun!” Maame Mensah Bonsu, Law Lecturer.
