About Lancaster University Ghana
For over 50 years Lancaster University has been providing World Class education to students across the world. Lancaster is ranked amongst the top ten universities in the UK, according to the Guardian university league table, and internationally amongst the top universities in the world.
Lancaster University Ghana is the only fully fledged branch campus in West Africa and is set to grow into a major regional teaching and research university of international standing in the near future.
Our branch campus in Ghana offers the exact same degree to the degrees offered at our Lancaster University main campus in the UK. What this means is that you will be awarded the same qualifications - as if you were studying at the main campus.

Foundation Programme at Lancaster University Ghana
The Lancaster University Ghana Foundation Programme establishes a pathway for students wishing to gain seamless entry into undergraduate programmes at LUG, or at the main Lancaster University campus in the United Kingdom.
The programme ensures a smooth transition from secondary school into university. The programme is validated by Lancaster University for direct entry into their Undergraduate programmes. Our programme is also the only programme in Sub-Saharan Africa to have received full accreditation by the British Accreditation Council.
What makes our Foundation Programme stand out? We integrate theoretical learning with practical application while trying try to make learning as fun and as interactive as possible. In the process, students learn how to think critically in everything they do - be it in academic research and writing, in debating, or when honing their presentation skills.
