Arhin built his academic career at the University of Ghana, where he was an editor of the Legon Observer and had a long-standing association with the Institute of African Studies. In October 1988 Arhin, who by then had served as acting Director of the Institute of African Studies for a year, was officially appointed successor to Kwesi A. Dickson as Director of the Institute.[1] He served as Director of the Institute until the academic year 1997–8, when he was succeeded by George Hagan.

In the 1990s he served as a member of the Council of State and as Chairman of Ghana's National Commission on Culture.

He died on September 6, 2015.
