The 19th graduation ceremony of the Regent University College of Science and Technology has been held under the theme “From knowledge to action, confronting the crisis of health, economy, and the environment.” The president made a call on graduates to be innovative in tackling Ghana’s various developmental challenges.
The ceremony was held on the school’s premises in Accra and attended by the graduates, their families, friends, faculty members, and some guests. The President of the Regent University College of Science and Technology, Nana Yaw Boadi Appiah, urged the graduates to move beyond academic achievement and apply their knowledge to solving Ghana’s most urgent health, environmental, and economic challenges.
He further emphasized that Ghana required graduates who would strengthen healthcare systems, improve service delivery through technology, and promote mental health and community well-being.
“Your skills are not just for personal success; they are tools for nation building,” he said. He urged graduates to translate learning into measurable impact, warning against complacency. The Deputy Director of Tertiary Education at the Ministry of Education, Fred Kissiedu, highlighted innovation as central to addressing modern challenges. He urged graduates trained in science, technology, entrepreneurship, and business to pioneer solutions that create jobs and strengthen economic resilience.
Mr. Kissiedu also encouraged ethical leadership and warned against corruption in their various areas of endeavours, adding, “Choose the path of honesty, discipline, and service, and never allow corruption to define you.”
