The Takoradi Technical University, has launched a five-year strategic plan that will guide its academic activities as it now assumes a technical university status.

The plan, which was launched by industrialist and council member of the University Ato Panford, who is also the NPP’s Parliamentary Candidate for the Shama Constituency in the Western Region, focuses on entrepreneurial development and technology driven expertise for students.

Mr. Panford explained that “its a new era with a new approach. With our status as a technical university, we owe it a responsibility to ensure we upgrade our skills to produce competent and relevant entrepreneurs who could form joint ventures to take up the development challenge facing our country.”

He added that, ” when this happens, we can stop the culture of giving out our developmental projects to Indians and the likes. This 5-year strategic plan is a new beginning which is spelling out our vision and mission and to direct us in what we want to achieve.”

The Takoradi Technical University after the launch of the strategic plan, was also officially launched.

The university, even though was commissioned by President John Dramani Mahama in April this year, it was not launched officially until today November 17th.
