He takes over from Professor Kwesi Yankah, who resigned early this year to take up appointment as a Minister of State in Charge of Tertiary Education.

The new Vice-Chancellor is an academic and a practising Chartered Psychologist (British Psychological Society and International Association of Applied Psychology) with over 20 years of experience in business education, organisational consulting, university teaching and research. His research interests are in the areas of Employee Motivation, Leadership, Work Values, Organisational Culture and CSR.

A product of the Presbyterian Boys Secondary School (PRESEC, Legon), Prof Puplampu holds a PhD in Organisational Behaviour from the University of East London (1993); MSc Occupational and Organisational Psychology from the Polytechnic of East London (1990) and Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Ghana.
