Welcome Message

I welcome you to the website of the  Research Board of the College of Basic and Applied Sciences of University of Ghana.  If this is your first time, we hope you will find relevant information, particularly on the research agenda of the various schools and departments within the College.

The College of Basic and Applied Sciences was established in 2014 with a key expectation to promote an aggressive research agenda that would contribute to the University of Ghana’s vision of becoming research intensive world-class university. To achieve this feat, the research board of the college was constituted to spearhead the research agenda of the college towards the realization of this vision.

On the path to achieve its mission, the research board introduced its annual science and development platform (CBAS-SDP) with the aim of providing an opportunity for faculty of the college to showcase their research findings. In addition, the board  provide the space and time for faculty from different backgrounds and disciplines to exchange ideas and forge inter, multi and trans-disciplinary teams to work collaboratively on research projects in the hope of finding solutions to problems relevant to Ghana and the sub region in general. To enhance the College visibility, “Science and Development Journal” was established through which faculty of the College can disseminate their research findings to the scientific community. The long-term objective is to establish a high standard and internationally reputable journal with the College where scientists can share their research findings. As part of the strategy of working towards attaining the desired standard, the board has put in place systems to ensure that faculty, especially early career faculty have the support they need to produce high quality manuscripts.

I personally thank you once again for visiting our website and encourage suggestions from you that will help our College be competitive in our pursuance of research excellence.
