Diploma in Business (ATHE-UK) – Level 3 to Level 7

The Diploma in Business at Methodist University is a business and management programme offered by the Faculty of Business Administration. It follows the ATHE-UK framework from Level 3 to Level 7, giving you a structured path into the field. Entry is less competitive, so many SHS graduates can apply.

What a business diploma covers

Programmes of this kind introduce you to how organisations run: planning, organising, leading and controlling. You will typically meet topics like marketing, finance, human resource management, operations, and entrepreneurship. The ATHE-UK levels here mean you move from foundation knowledge to more advanced management thinking, building skills in communication, analysis, teamwork and decision-making that employers look for.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry to this diploma is less competitive than many other programmes at public universities. That means more students with passable WASSCE grades are likely to satisfy the requirements. You should still check with Methodist University whether your specific grades qualify, because the published subject requirements still apply. Similar diploma programmes at other institutions in Ghana are also less competitive, so you have options if you need to compare.
