  12. I need an orientation of the “Artificial intelligence and Robotics” since apart from the private universities you are the only ones doing it as well.
    How do we get access to the orientation, to be able to get more knowledge on the programs.
    If you suggest coming to the school to seek information, that won’t be possible I’m in Accra .
    Thank you.
