The University of Cape Coast needs more money for research work. Vice Chancellor Johnson Nyarko Boampong called the lack of funding a major problem during a graduation ceremony. He asked alumni to help the top-ranked school in Ghana and West Africa. The university wants to improve its research efforts despite limited resources.
At its 57th congregation, UCC awarded degrees to 1,187 graduate students. The graduates received various advanced degrees, from doctoral to master's level qualifications. The school still faces building shortages and research funding problems. Officials plan to gather resources for both research activities and new buildings. They aim to attract more international students through better programs.

The school raised these examination payments from 5 to 10 Ghana cedis. UCC leaders promise to create programs that prepare students for real-world challenges. Their goal focuses on developing graduates with skills and values that serve society.
