Since Ghana’s independence in 1957, university education has been limited to a priviledge few in the society and this development impedes the quick socio-economic transformation of the country. In order to provide a realistic solution to this developmental problem of state-dependent funding of higher education which results in inadequate opportunities for university education for the growing population, the Founder/President and the Principal have having obtained the requisite academic qualification complemented with enough professional experience, decided to establish Advanced Business College and now a University College as its contribution to the provision of higher education in Ghana.
VISION
The aims and objectives of the College among others are to:
- provide higher education and training in academic and professional disciplines
- undertake research
- disseminate knowledge, and
- foster relationships with outside persons and bodies in Ghana and outside.
MISSION
In pursuance of these aims, the following are the guiding principles:
- that in determining the courses to be offered, emphasis should be placed on those courses which are of special relevance to the development needs of Ghana.
- that in as far as is practicable, students should be given an understanding of computers and information technologies to enable them function effectively in the global economy.
- that as far as practicable, students should be taught to use the French language effectively, both orally and in written form.
- that students should be taught methods of critical and independent reasoning, while being made aware that they have the responsibility to use their education for the benefit of all.
- that research should be undertaken in all subjects taught in the College.
- that the fruits of research and knowledge should be spread by the publication of books and papers and by any other suitable means.
- that the College should develop close relationships with the people and institutions of Ghana and those outside Ghana.
