About University of Cape Coast (UCC)

The University of Cape Coast is a public, coeducational university that may be found in the centre of Cape Coast in the Central Region of Ghana. The school is located on a hill with stunning views of the expansive Atlantic Ocean, and it even has its own private seashore. The Southern Campus (Old Site) and the Northern Campus are the two locations where its operations are carried out (New Site). Elmina and Cape Coast Castle, two of the most significant historical landmarks in Ghana, are located just a few kilometres away from the campus of this institution.

In October 1962, in response to the country's critical need for highly trained and competent workers in the field of education, the University of Cape Coast was founded. Its original mandate was to prepare graduate instructors for second cycle schools, teacher training colleges, and technical institutions. This was a mission that the two existing public universities at the time were unable to fulfil since they lacked the necessary resources.

An Act of Parliament granted the college the right to issue its own degrees, diplomas, and certificates on October 1, 1971, thus, granting it the status of a complete and autonomous university. This gave the institution the ability to bestow degrees onto its own students. The university is now in a position to address the human resource demands of the country's other ministries and sectors, aside the Ministry of Education.  Since its founding, this educational institution has expanded its mission to include the education of those who want to pursue careers as agriculturalists, business professionals, administrators, and legal professionals. UCC has produced individuals who have gone on to hold positions such as Ministers of State, High Commissioners, CEOs, and Members of Parliament.

History: University of Cape Coast (UCC)

The University of Cape Coast was formed in October 1962 as a university institution and given a special partnership with the University of Ghana, Legon. And with the ability to award its own degrees, diplomas, and certificates according to a parliamentary act, the institution officially became a full-fledged university on October 1, 1971. The urgent demand for highly trained and competent labour in the education sector led to the establishment of the university. In order to address the workforce requirements of the country's accelerated education programme at the time, its initial goal was to train graduate professional teachers for Ghana's second cycle institutions and the Ministry of Education. The university is now able to address the workforce requirements of other ministries and sectors in the nation, in addition to the Ministry of Education, thanks to the development of some of its faculties/schools and the diversification of its programmes. The University of Cape Coast today has around 80,000 students enrolled overall, up from 155 when it first opened its doors in 1963.

There were just two academic departments at the institution in the beginning: Arts and Science. These departments were formed into faculties in 1963. The university established the faculties of education and economics & social studies, which is currently known as the faculty of social sciences, in 1964 in order to further its efforts to meet the goals specified. The year 1975 saw the establishment of the fifth faculty, the School of Agriculture. In order to create the Schools of Physical and Biological Sciences, the faculty of science was divided during the 2002–2003 academic year. Beginning with the 2003–2004 academic year, the Department of Business Studies was also raised to the status of a School of Business. Many new schools have been added, including the medical school, law faculty, and economics school. The university today educates physicians, nurses, administrators, agriculturalists, accountants, attorneys, and other professions in addition to those involved in planning and implementing educational programmes. Ministers of State, High Commissioners, CEOs, and Members of Parliament are among the University of Cape Coast (UCC) alumni.
