STU Lecturer Mr. Frederick Ebenezer Okai Donates 4 Electric Potter’s Wheels to Enhance Practical Training

Sunyani Technical University (STU) has received four (4) Electric Potter’s Wheel from Mr. Frederick Ebenezer Okai, a lecturer at the Department of Visual and Industrial Arts, to support practical teaching and learning in ceramics.


The donation, made on 18th February 2026, is aimed at helping students acquire hands-on skills in ceramic throwing using modern equipment, in line with industry standards and contemporary creative practices.
Receiving the equipment, the Vice-Chancellor and the Acting Pro Vice-Chancellor expressed profound appreciation to Mr. Okai for his thoughtful gesture. They noted that the Electric Potter’s Wheel would significantly enhance students’ practical competencies and help bridge the gap between classroom training and industry expectations.


The Vice-Chancellor further described the donation as a commendable example of staff commitment to the University’s growth and student development. He encouraged other lecturers to emulate the initiative by contributing in diverse ways toward improving teaching and learning resources across departments. He also revealed that the gesture had personally inspired him to support his own department with similar contributions.
The event was witnessed by the Head of the Department of Visual and Industrial Arts, fellow lecturers, and students, who expressed excitement about the new equipment and its potential impact on their practical training.


The University once again commends Mr. Frederick Ebenezer Okai for his dedication to skills development and continuous improvement in technical education at STU.
