Ashesi’s new campus, based on traditional architecture, features a series of courtyards interconnected with a landscape of trees, benches and stairs, creating natural spaces for meeting and group study.
Featuring state-of-the-art educational technology and environmentally conscious designs, this groundbreaking campus in West Africa will help us attract top faculty, students and administrators, and will strengthen Ashesi’s commitment to fostering community whose ethos will inspire a new generation of ethical entrepreneurial leaders in Africa.
