The Public Affairs Directorate has held a day’s interactive session with final year pupils of the University of Ghana Basic Schools at the Great Hall.
About 160 participants attended the programme which aimed at providing the pupils with first-hand information about the University, its courses and programmes and admission processes to equip them with the requisite knowledge in the selection of programmes for their tertiary education.

In addition to providing them with a brief background of the University, they were taken round the Convocation group of buildings where they saw the busts of past Vice Chancellors.
