About Our University

The Takoradi Technical University was established in April 1954 as a Government Technical Institute. In September 2016, following the government’s policy to convert Takoradi Polytechnic, along with five other Polytechnics, into Technical Universities, it attained the status of a Technical University. Since its establishment in April 1954, Takoradi Technical University (formerly Takoradi Polytechnic) has functioned as a Government Technical Institute under the Ghana Education Service of the Ministry of Education.
During that period, the institute offered programmes mainly at the Craft and Technician Certificate levels in commercial and technical subjects, awarding certificates from the Royal Society of Arts (RSA) and the City and Guilds of London, United Kingdom. However, in 1990, the Ghana Education Service assumed responsibility for awarding these certificates.
