Volta River Authority (VRA) Donates 2 Million Ghana Cedis To The College of Engineering Endowment Fund

The Volta River Authority (VRA) has redeemed its pledge of 2 million Ghana Cedis (GHC 2,000,000.00) into the KNUST College of Engineering Endowment Fund. 

During the fund’s launch, the Chief Executive of Volta River Authority (VRA), Ing. Emmanuel Antwi Darkwa, said its establishment is timely as it would support additional resources to enable the College to deliver its mandate. He encouraged all persons who have benefitted directly or indirectly from the College to contribute generously to the Fund.

The College of Engineering Endowment Fund was launched on 14th October 2022. It seeks to improve the quality of postgraduate programmes, expand access to postgraduate programmes, provide scholarships to attract brilliant students, and improve infrastructure to support teaching and learning. The Fund will enable the College of Engineering to become an internationally acknowledged centre of excellence in engineering education, producing high-calibre graduates with knowledge and expertise to support Ghana and Africa's industrial and socio-economic development.

The target is to raise 50 million Ghana Cedis (GHȻ 50,000,000.00) within five years.
