What academic programmes does UHAS offer?

Updated

UHAS (uhas.edu.gh) offers undergraduate and postgraduate programmes through its schools and institutes, with a focus on healthcare education. The site separates Undergraduate Programmes and Postgraduate Programmes under Academics, and lists schools and institutes where you can check the specific offerings. The homepage states UHAS is "the only state university in Ghana solely dedicated to healthcare education," with a focus on practical professional training, community service, and research.

Where to find programme details

The site provides these entry points:

  • Academics — the main section for programme information
  • Undergraduate Programmes and Postgraduate Programmes — separate pages for each level
  • Admissions — with distinct Undergraduate Admissions and Postgraduate Admissions pages
  • List of Schools — the homepage section titled "Our Schools and Institutes"
  • Institutes — including the Institute of Health Research and the Institute of Traditional and Alternative Medicine

The homepage does not list every degree title, so use the Academics and Schools sections to confirm the exact programme you want.

What the site indicates about programme quality

The homepage highlights outcomes that may matter when comparing programmes:

Indicator What the site states
SDG 8 ranking 1st in Ghana, 95th globally among 1,350 universities
SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) 1st in Ghana
Nursing and Midwifery Council licensure exams 100% pass rate for the past 3 years
Allied Health Professional licensure exams 100% pass rate for the past 4 years

These figures are the university's own published claims and refer to licensure exam pass rates, not to every programme.

Practical next steps

  1. Open the Academics section and choose Undergraduate Programmes or Postgraduate Programmes depending on your level.
  2. Check the List of Schools to see which school or institute hosts your intended field (for example, nursing, midwifery, allied health, or traditional and alternative medicine).
  3. Review Tuition & Fees and Financial Aid before applying, since costs differ by programme.
  4. Use the correct admissions page — Undergraduate Admissions or Postgraduate Admissions — for entry requirements and deadlines.
  5. Watch the News section for applicant notices; the site posts updates such as the "NOTICE TO UHAS APPLICANTS - WASSCE RESULTS."
