HISTORY
The Department above mentioned was adopted in the year 2002 by a private individual, a professor from Kwame Nkrumah University Of Science And Technology (KNUST). The event was on contract base. He provided 70 chairs and 35 tables. He paid Teachers on his income because it was not a core subject. Students who liked the subject had to pay to attend ICT lessons, when OKESS was running a satellite campus.
It was later separated from The Science Department when it was made a core subject by the new Educational Reform.
