University of Ghana - UG Speciality : Art & Design
programme: Psychology and Arts

My experience studying Psychology and French at the University of Ghana has been a blend of positive and negative aspects. On the positive side, the Psychology department boasts some truly exceptional professors. Dr. Ernest Darkwah, in particular, made Psychology for everyday living incredibly engaging through their use of real-world case studies, their clear explanations of complex theories. The department’s focus on research opportunities, practical application has been valuable. In the French department, I’ve appreciated the opportunity to practice conversational French, the well-structured curriculum. However, access to certain resources, like specialized software for language learning, has been inconsistent. The administrative processes, particularly registration, grade processing, can be slow and frustrating. Furthermore, the library’s collection of psychology and French resources could be expanded. Despite these challenges, I believe the University of Ghana offers a valuable education in both Psychology and French, and I’m committed to completing my studies here. The strong academic foundation provided, coupled with the opportunity to engage with a diverse student body, makes it a worthwhile experience.
