Ashesi University’s mission is to propel an African renaissance by educating next-generation ethical, entrepreneurial leaders and raising the bar for higher education in Africa. Located in Ghana, this non-profit, multidisciplinary university combines a rigorous liberal arts core with degree programs in Computer Science, Business Administration, Management Information Systems, and Engineering. A student-led honor code, hands-on learning, integrated community service, and real-world projects prepare students to develop solutions for the challenges facing their individual communities, countries and the continent.

Ashesi is now recognised as a leader in higher education in Africa, In 2018, the President of Ghana granted the University a Charter to operate as a fully autonomous institution; no longer to be supervised by a public university under Ghana’s accreditation system.
