Gov't asked to develop policy for funding tertiary education
The President of Regent University College of
Science and Technology, Reverend Professor
Emmanuel Larbi has called on government to develop
a comprehensive approach towards the funding of
tertiary education in the country.

He suggested the widening of existing scholarship
schemes to allow the admission of many poor and
deprived people to access tertiary education.

The Rev. Prof. Larbi said this at the 5th
graduation of the Regent University College of
Science and Technology in Accra.

Professor Larbi said many students are forced to
drop out of University due to what he called
financial stress.

He announced the introduction of Bachelor of
Science program in Statistics, Masters of
Philosophy in Statistics and Doctorate in Business
Administration at the start of the next academic
year.

400 students graduated with various degrees.

Professor Francis Owusu-Afram who represented the
Vice Chancellor of the KNUST commended the College
for complementing the country’s human resource
needs.

The overall best student award was presented to
Mary Abena Serwaa Sackey.
