Collaboration between SGGW and Kumasi Technical University
SGGW expands collaboration with Ghanaian universities. The visit of the Vice-Rector for Internationalisation, SGGW Prof. Marta Mendel to Kumasi and Cape Coast was an opportunity to discuss achievements to date and plans for the future. Through the Erasmus+ and Katamaran programmes, the partnership with Kumasi Technical University and Cape Coast Technical University is gaining momentum, opening up new opportunities for students and researchers.
The recent visit of the Vice-rector for Internationalization, SGGW Prof. Marta Mendel to Kumasi and Cape Coast, Ghana, provided a valuable opportunity to evaluate recent achievements and discuss strategies for further developing the partnership between the Warsaw University of Life Sciences and Kumasi Technical University (KsTU), as well as Cape Coast Technical University.
The collaboration between these institutions extends beyond the Erasmus+ mobility program. It encompasses doctoral students from KsTU and a joint study program leading to a double degree in environmental engineering. This initiative will be implemented under the Katamaran program of the National Agency for Academic Exchange. The most recent joint endeavor involves a collaborative application for an Erasmus+ project aimed at strengthening the capacities of Ghanaian universities in the field of environmental engineering.
The meetings at KsTU were chaired by the Rector, Professor Gabriel Dwomoh. A key facilitator of the partnership between KsTU and SGGW is Professor Addo Koranteng, an alumnus and former doctoral student of SGGW in the discipline of forestry.
