University of Cape Coast

 

Background

The idea to establish a Medical School at UCC was conceived in the mid-1970s by the then Vice-Chancellor, Prof. J. Yanney-Ewusie who indicated that the Faculty of Science could support a Medical School whenever a Regional Hospital was built on Cape Coast.

However, it was not until April 2003, when the then Vice-Chancellor, Rev. Prof. Emmanuel Adow Obeng, set up an eleven ( 11 )- member committee to deliberate on the issue, that plans to set up the School began in earnest.
