Check if you qualify

B.Sc. Mathematics Education at Akenten Appiah-Menka University trains you to teach mathematics in senior high schools and beyond. The programme combines deep knowledge of mathematical concepts with classroom skills, preparing you for a rewarding career in education. Entry is less competitive, making it a realistic option for students with a General Science or Technical Studies background.

What studying mathematics education involves

Programmes of this kind typically cover university-level mathematics alongside teaching methods, educational psychology, and curriculum design. You learn how to explain abstract ideas clearly, how to assess what students understand, and how to plan lessons that make mathematics accessible. Most graduates go into teaching, but the analytical and communication skills you build are also valuable in other careers.

How hard it is to get a place

This programme is less competitive than many other university courses. If you have a General Science or Technical Studies background from SHS and solid WASSCE results, you stand a good chance of being offered admission. The programme is offered full-time at Asante Mampong, and your eligibility depends on meeting the published subject requirements. Check your grades against those requirements to see whether you qualify.

Where mathematics education can take you

Most graduates become mathematics teachers at senior high schools, preparing students for WASSCE and beyond. Others go into educational administration, develop curricula, write textbooks, or offer private tutoring. The strong numeracy and problem-solving skills you develop also open doors in fields such as data analysis and banking, where confident handling of numbers is highly valued.
