Fifteen final year students and a lecturer from the Publishing Studies Department of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) will visit Germany next week under a German government programme.
The 12-day trip between March 01 and March 12 is a scholarship by the German government through Deutscher Akademischer Austauscdienst (DAAD), a German academic exchange service.
The Liaison officer for the College of Art and Social Sciences, Mr Ralph Nyadu-Addo who is the leader of the delegation, said this at a press briefing in Kumasi over the weekend.
He said the trip would provide the students with the rare opportunity of not only learning new technological approaches to the study of the print environment but also a hands-on experience of developments in Publishing Studies.
The group would attend seminars, workshops and visits to printing and publishing training institutions such as the Bergischer University at Wuppertal, Ruediger Koeppe Publishing House in Cologne, Heidelberg Printing Machine Company and others.
Mr Nyadu-Addo, a lecturer at the Publishing Studies Department of the KNUST, said the students would have the opportunity to interact with other students, lecturers, professors, researchers and other practitioners in the publishing industry in Germany.
He praised the German government for its support for the development of education in the country especially towards the publishing industry.
He also commended DAAD (a German Academic Exchange Service) and Heidelberg Printing Machine Company for their support for the development of the publishing studies programme at the KNUST.
