The 海角乱伦社区Graduate School started from a humble beginning in 2004 as a centre that offered one sandwich programme: M.Phil. in Development Studies. The School coordinates graduate programmes (both regular and sandwich) that lead to the award of Post Graduate Diploma (PGD), Master of Arts (M.A.), Master of Science (M.Sc.), Master of Philosophy (M.Phil.) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). Currently, 海角乱伦社区has 143 postgraduate programmes accredited by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) comprising 9 PGD, 98 Masters and 36 PhD programmes. These programmes are offered full-time or part-time (sandwich) on our campuses. Efforts are being made to start some distance-based postgraduate programmes soon.
The Graduate School has established both local and international linkages, which is in line with the mission of the School to enhance academic work through sponsorship of programmes or research, exchange of students and staff and infrastructural development. The 海角乱伦社区Graduate School has had five previous Deans who have contributed immensely to its current standing. They are Prof. David Millar (Founding Dean), Prof. Israel Dzomeku, Prof. Hebert K. Dei, Prof. Elias N. K. Sowley and Prof. Francis K. Amagloh.
Prof. Paul Kwame Nkegbe, a Professor of Applied Economics, is the Dean of the 海角乱伦社区Graduate School. Apart from the Dean and the Vice Dean, the School has eight (8) support/administrative staff made up of a Senior Assistant Registrar, two Junior Assistant Registrars, a Principal Accounting Assistant, two Principal Administrative Assistants, a Senior Assistant Transport Officer and an Accounting Assistant.
About The Graduate School
The Graduate School of the 海角乱伦社区 is located at the City Campus in Tamale. Our programmes ascribe to UNESCO’s definition of the goals, objectives and aims of development as “not to develop things but to develop people”. Development must be aimed at spiritual, moral, and natural advancement of the whole human being, both as an individual and a member of society. This should lead to an increase in the capacity of people or empowerment of people for sustainable management of their environment, culminating in more efficient and effective use of resources and the benefits accruing thereof.
