Two Nigerian Students Top at Ghanaian University-2016 by kennyung: 11:47am On Mar 01, 2016
ACCRA, 29th February 2016: The Accra Institute of Technology (AIT), a leading technology-focused private university awarded two Nigerians the top prize during the University’s 9th Graduation Congregation held in Accra over the weekend.

In a statement released by the University, Mr. Peter Hunnoho Moses(left), who graduated with a First Class Honours Bachelor of Science Degree in Information Technology was judged the overall best student of the graduation class with a cumulative GPA of 3.99.

The overall best student in the Female category went to Ms. Odinaka Abel Favour(right) who graduated with a First Class Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration with a cumulative GPA of 3.90.

In his speech to the congregation, which saw the graduation of Bachelor’s degree holders and PhDs, Professor Clement Dzidonu, the President of the University observed that this is a major achievement given that, AIT has the toughest and the highest grading system within the university system in Ghana.

‘To get an A grade in a subject at AIT you must score above 90 and to get a First Class with a cumulative GPA close to the maximum 4.2, means that a student must consistently get A grades across board’, Professor Dzidonu noted.

The Deputy Minister for Education, responsible for Tertiary Education, Hon. Samuel Okudjeto Ablakwa, who was the Special Guest of Honour, congratulated the university for mounting mainly science, technology and engineering programs which in his view is in line with Government’s determination to implement and enforce the 60:40 policy guidelines aimed at giving priority to science, mathematics and engineering programs in our tertiary institutions.

The Deputy Minister also congratulated those receiving the overall best graduating student awards and noted that, Ghana is currently attracting over seven thousand foreign students from close to sixty countries to its private and public universities annually. He announced that the Government is mindful of the internationalization of higher education and the Ministry of Education is empowering its statutory higher education regulatory bodies to ensure that the high academic standards of a number of the Ghanaian universities including AIT are internationally benchmarked to continue to attract more foreign students.
