Our History

The Anglican University College of Technology (ANG.U.TECH), owned by the Anglican Communion in Ghana, was founded in 2008. ANG.U.TECH was established to train high level Science and Technology Human Resources in a holistic manner, to conduct Innovative Research and provide Extension Services for the country.

The University College, structured as a Multi-Campus University will provide economically viable programmes aimed at producing graduates who will contribute towards the socio-economic development of the country. ANG.U.TECH is an institution with a Christian character but caters for all students, irrespective of their backgrounds and religious affiliation.

On 29th March, 2008, the University College was inaugurated at the Cathedral Church at Kumasi, the St. Cyprian’s Anglican Church, under the distinguished patronage of the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II and the then President of the Republic of Ghana, His Excellency John Agyekum Kufour amongst other dignitaries. The first President of the University College, Prof. Marian Ewurama Addy, was officially inducted into office at the event following her appointment in January 2008. An international launch followed in July the same year, at the University of Kent as a side event during the Lambeth Conference in Canterbury, United Kingdom.

The University College is affiliated to the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST). The first College of the University, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, located at Nkoranza in the Brong-Ahafo Region was inaugurated on 25th October 2013 to pave way for admission of the first batch of students.
