Abstract
As part of restructuring of University of Ghana ICT system, Mr. Barfi-Adomako Owusu was temporal transferred to the College of Health Sciences, University of Ghana Campus to reorganize the IT systems to conform to the new created University of Ghana Computing Systems (UGCS). UGCS is a merger of all the previous ICT related department and units in the University, including the ICT Directorate (ICTD), the Planning and Management Information System Directorate (PMIS) and the Electronic Support Unit (ESU).. This merger was initially recommended by the Visitation Panel Report upon which a number of other restructuring exercises in the University are based.
The Korle-Bu Campus of College of Health Sciences (CHS) has three constituents of the College in addition to the College Central Administration. These constituents are the Medical School (UGMS), Dental School (UGDS) and the School of Allied Health Sciences (SAHS).
It is only the Dental School, which is housed in two buildings close to each other. The UGMS and SAHS are scattered all over the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital compound with some departments in the hospital wards etc. SAHS has recently relocated some of its offices to the student hostel and the ground floor of the CHS Administrative Block.
The College Library has taken up all issues related to ICT for the College and continues to do so. The Computer Assisted Learning Centre (CALC) which is a unit in the library, headed by an Assistant Librarian (Senior Member) with six other staff and national service personnel handle all ICT issues.
