Overview of Programmes

The six departments offer a wide and diverse range of disciplines in both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. Departments from other University of Ghana faculties contribute to science teaching at all levels, allowing students to choose elective courses from biological, nuclear, behavioural, and environmental sciences. Our undergraduate degree programmes are designed to provide students with the fundamental knowledge, competence and skills that will enable them to lead and achieve at the highest level in their chosen profession. The programmes also assist students to develop independence, leadership and life-long learning skill.
