The project is supported through the develop funding programme which GIZ implements on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).<\/p>\n

A news brief issued in Accra said, the Minister of Health, will usher the new Biomedical Engineering in the Universities with the launch of the innovative project, dubbed: \u201cUpskilling Biomedical Engineers for Ghana.\u201d<\/p>\n
