A message from Dr. Ebenezer
To my students, faculty colleagues, and community partners:Dr. Ebenezer Afarikumah,
I decided to start my journey in Business Administration when I saw the necessity of combining business and information technology. I believe a positive classroom atmosphere will allow my students to identify the needs of business’ next generation.
My daily goal will be to lead by example with a positive attitude that makes every student feel safe and important. This environment can encourage students to maximize their learning by actively participating in each lesson. I hope that this will lead to a greater increase in Goodwin’s business school graduates who cross the stage with honors.
While outside of the classroom, I plan to build partnerships and collaborations with local, national, and global industries. My connections will be used to provide internships, employment, and consultation projects between my students and the current industry employers.
Overall, I hope my Business Administration journey at Goodwin University will be a ministry that supports people through technology, engineering, and learning.
