Ashesi celebrated a historic milestone as two outstanding faculty members, Associate Professor Nathan Amanquah and Dr. Ayorkor Korsah, were honored at an inaugural investiture ceremony on October 4th. The two were honoured with new faculty positions in the presence of members of our community—board members, family, colleagues, and friends—who gathered to celebrate their remarkable contributions to Ashesi and academia.
Recognising Outstanding Faculty Leadership
Associate Professor Nathan Amanquah was named the inaugural Patrick Awuah Professorial Chair, while Dr. Ayorkor Korsah was named the inaugural Hopper-Dean Fellow. The new positions celebrate the roles both have played in shaping Ashesi’s Engineering and Computer Science programmes and in strengthening teaching, learning, and research overall. The awards were conferred by Provost Angela Owusu-Ansah, who read citations highlighting the legacy the two honorees are building in academia.
