The programs are Masters in Development Communication, Media Management, Political Communication, Journalism, Public Relations and Advertising.
The Rector of the Institute, David Newton announced this at a special congregation in Accra.

A total of 17 students obtained first class honors, 37 had second class upper whilst 44 had second lower honors. Only one person graduated with a third class degree.
