We’re back for the 4th Edition of the Nyansapo Dialogue Series, an annual students’ and alumni engagement initiative jointly organized by the Advancement and Alumni Relations Office (AARO), KNUST, and the Students’ Representative Council (SRC), KNUST.
The Nyansapo Dialogue Series is designed to reconnect students with distinguished alumni and accomplished professionals through storytelling, mentorship, and shared experiences. The platform encourages students, particularly first-year entrants, to rethink traditional notions of success by learning directly from those who have navigated academic life, leadership, and professional careers beyond the University.
