The University of Energy and Natural Resources (UENR), Sunyani, through the Earth Observation Research and Innovation Center (EORIC) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Africa Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) to set up a two-year Master programme in Climate Change and Atmospheric Physics (CCAP) to improve the knowledge and understanding of Climate and Atmospheric processes.<\/p>\n

This collaboration falls in line with the University\u2019s Statutes and vision of the Vice-Chancellor Prof. Elvis Asare-Bediako on the need to forge collaborations with industry and academia.<\/p>\n

The program when developed and accredited will see AIMS Ghana register the students at UENR where the first year will be dedicated to the course work which would be done in a blended face-to-face and online model. The second year of the program would be dedicated to the research work where students would be doing data analysis, simulations, models development, writing and defending their thesis. The CCAP programme will prepare young Africans for a research career in Climate Modeling and Atmospheric Physics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
