About The University

University Overview

Lakeside University College, Ghana (L.U.C.G) was established in 2013 by the Madina Foundation for Science & Technology (M.F.S.T); a not-for-profit entity incorporated in 2010 to provide quality tertiary education to individuals who aspire to acquire and advance knowledge of science and technology. The Foundation, since its inception, has established several basic and senior high schools, including one solely for orphans. The Directors of M.F.S.T see the establishment of L.U.C.G as a logical capstone to their efforts at providing quality but affordable education to the youth of Ghana and beyond and also contributing to the development of their community.

The University commenced operation with three schools:

  • School of Engineering.
