The Ministry of Education has announced the implementation of a one-year pre-engineering program for students with non-science backgrounds in universities.

The one-year program is for non-science students who want to study engineering at the tertiary level.

The sector minister, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, made this declaration on March 9, 2023, during an unscheduled school visit to Osu Presby Senior High School in the Greater Accra Region.

As part of the visit, the minister inspected most of the classrooms while lessons were ongoing and he shared lessons from his life experiences and that of other great personalities like Dr Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana's first president and Barrack Obama, the former United States of America president, and many others.

He further encouraged the students to study hard and excel regardless of their various backgrounds.

In addition, he pledged to furnish some classrooms with paints and louvre blades to make it a convenient learning environment for students and also provide textbooks for efficient learning.
