Council (HEAC) under the Education Act of 1995, and became a
constituent college of Tumaini University. MUCo introduced other
disciplines in humanities, education and law. In 2011 the college was

FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES
The vision, mission and aims of Faculty of Humanities and Social
Sciences (FHSS) are the same as those of TUMA. The uniqueness of the
Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at TUMA is its additional
dimension to the otherwise traditional, theoretical approach in the
teaching of subjects. In the new millennium, the practice of teaching
subjects for its own sake at the University level seems to have become
obsolete. In the new era of Information Technology (IT), the Faculty of
Humanities and Social Sciences at TUMA will have its teaching geared
more towards a career-oriented approach which would prepare students
to face the challenge of globalisation in the competitive market. More
details on this approach will be given under each department.
Aims and Objectives
In line with the vision and mission of Tumaini University Makumira,
the paramount aims and objectives of the Faculty of Humanities and
Social Sciences are:
 To promote excellence in professional, technical, academic, and
research endeavours.
 To develop critical, analytical, and conceptual capacities within
inter-related fields of knowledge.
 To empower students with academic skills which will help them
deal with the challenges of the modern world.
 To offer consultancies in the areas of Humanities and applied Social
Sciences.
 To develop and promote courses that are job oriented in today‘s
world of Information Technology (IT).
 To develop in due course (and all factors having been considered)
postgraduate programmes which will promote national and regional
development for self-reliance in high level human resources.
 To foster a climate that will produce leaders who will stand for truth
and exhibit, in their professional leadership and personal conduct,
respect for human rights and for ethical/moral values.

BACHELOR OF ARTS IN LANGUAGES
The Bachelor of Arts Languages (BA. Languages) offered at Tumaini
University Makumira is taught in their own right as languages with
skills to be mastered. Once mastered, the teaching (especially in the
final years) will be geared more towards specific trades or careers that
are required in the field (i.e., in real life situation) such as in skills
required by translators, travel agents, proof readers, lexicographers,
curriculum developers, teachers, and so on. Arrangements will be made
for students to visit such professionals at their work places (e.g., at the
Arusha International Conference Centre‘s sessions where simultaneous
translations take place). Other possible places of visits would include
publishing and printing firms. Professionals will also be asked to come
and conduct either seminars or arranged lectures on the TUMA campus.
Such reciprocal visits will enrich the practical nature of the otherwise
theoretical courses.

The Bachelor of Arts in Languages Programme has the following
objectives:
 To develop the student's ability to communicate better, in spoken
and written forms.
 To teach the students core-courses such as basic skills/knowledge in
computer and current issues in development studies.
 To develop a comprehension of the theories of Languages and how
these theories apply to communication.
46

BACHELOR OF ARTS WITH EDUCATION
Programme description
The Bachelor of Arts with Education (BA.Ed) offered at Tumaini
University Makumira is specifically designed to produce high quality
secondary school teachers specifically trained to teach languages,
foreign and domestic to Tanzania in the areas of Kiswahili, English and
French. Other teaching subjects are; Geography, Economics and
History. More subjects may be added through (TUMA appropriate
organs and when need arises).
The Bachelor of Arts with education programme is a highly desirable
and demanded programme on account of the ever mushrooming
51
secondary schools that need highly competent graduate teachers. The
programme entails each of the student teachers enrolled into the
programme, taking two teaching subjects which make it highly
economical to the country, the region and the rest of Africa.
Objectives
The Bachelor of Arts with Education Programme has the following
objectives:
 To develop the student's ability to better communicate, in spoken
and written forms.
 To teach the students basic skills/knowledge in computer and
current issues in development studies.
 To develop a comprehension of the theories of Education and how
these theories apply to teaching.
 To instill in all graduates a sense of honour and pride in the
profession of teaching that they might carry that message to the
world.
 To equip students with the modern methods of teaching so that they
can effectively deliver the subject matter to their students.
Programme Expected Learing Outcomes
 Generate, promote and diserminate professional information,
knowledge and skills on two teaching subjects (Kiswahili, English,
French, Geography, Economics and History.)
 Describe the meaning, nature, principles and foundations of Arts
with Education
 Demonstrate understanding of the roles and functions of Bachelor
of Arts with education teachers in the context of the emerging
trends in education development and exposing trainees to the
techniques of handling specific content subjects.
 Identify and apply contemporary methods of teaching. Participatory
approaches as underlined by constructivism are particularly
emphasized, while at the same time applying modern technology.
 Demostrate knowledge, attitudes and attributes for the effective
performance of the complex tasks and responsibilities of teaching
two subjects.
 Construct, implement and evaluate appropriate programs of learing
52



experiences in secondary schools
Offer various stakeholders such as parents, teachers and school
administrators opportunities to support and monitor the
developmental process of students systematically and plan
interventions
Promote opportunities for students to be screened for moderate
learning difficulties handicapping conditions and designing
intervention programmes
Practice morality and ethical behaviours befitting professional
educators in the 21st century.
Graduation
The total number of credits for each semester should not be below 20,
and for the year 40. No student shall be allowed to graduate if s/he has
not cleared all the required courses. The minimum credits requirement
for graduation is 120/360.
Duration and Structure of the Courses
The degree programme lasts three years, in a two-semester annual
system. The maximum period a student can take is five years. One
semester consists of sixteen weeks of class and two weeks of
revision/examinations.
Course Registration Conditions
A Bachelor of Arts with Education student (specialising in Education
with Languages, History, Geography and economics) will be required to
register for a major and minor combination from among two of the
(teaching) subjects. Students will be required to take all courses in the
major and at least one in the minor. If a student has registered for a
major and a minor teaching subject and still the number of credits is
incomplete (i.e. less than 20 credits per semester) then s/he should opt
for more courses from the major part of his/her minor subject, or cross
faculty course registration.
A Bachelor of Arts with Education student whose major teaching
subject is one of the above-mentioned subjects (say Geography) will be
required to take all the major courses while at the same time is taking
only minor courses in the second subject.
53
A student who opts for one of the above mentioned subjects (say
Geography) as a minor teaching subject, will take minor courses in that
subject and it is assumed that such a student is taking major courses in
the other major subject be it History, Kiswahili, English, Economics or
French, and vice versa. By offering a subject as a minor subject does not
rule out teaching the subject at all levels of secondary education. For
this reason, minor courses are actually those that are central in the
Secondary school curriculum.
In addition to subject specialisations and double majors prescribed
under this programme, there will be Faculty-wide Common Courses (as
outlined below) which all students will be required to take and pass in
the first and second year.
In all courses offered as teaching subjects, students must have studied
and passed them with at least a C grade or above at CSEE level or
equivalent.

students have a very minimal level of music skills, meaning that they
play local and/or western instruments, and have some performance
experience, as a soloist or as part of a group, and that they are willing to
work hard to achieve the objectives of the programme. Prior music
reading skills are not assumed for this level.

Rationale: The overall objective is to develop the necessary tools and
skills for life-long music learning and exploration in music to perform,
arrange, and collaborate in local contexts. This Diploma will assist
church musicians to perform their duties better and also help educators
begin to deepen their skills in order to incorporate various kinds of
music into their teaching.
Purpose: This ordinary Diploma in Music gives individuals a broad
practical and theoretical knowledge, skills and competencies with both
Western and African music. Students will begin study of voice,
keyboard, guitar, brass, and conducting, in addition to African
instruments. They will also get an overview of various African and
Western music histories, and an introduction to music technology,
69
music education, and church music. It is hoped that many students will
desire to pursue further music studies as a result of completing this
programme.
Programme Structur: This is a two-year course. All courses will meet
for 15 weeks of instruction plus 2 weeks at the end of each semester for
final examinations. The nature of this programme is very practical.
Therefore, classes may meet in rooms with musical instruments,
specialized equipment, performance spaces, recording studios, villages,
or elsewhere as the curriculum dictates

BACHELOR OF ARTS IN MUSIC
Programme Description
The Department of Music at TUMa offers Bachelor of Arts in Music
(BAM), Diploma in Music, and Certificate in Music. These
programmes are designed to further the training, skills, and
opportunities for all levels of musicians, from beginners through
advanced.
71
In addition, Music as a Secondary Teaching subject is being offered
through special courses that fit in the Faculty of Humanities and Social
Sciences Bachelor of Arts with Education degree programme. Those
courses are specially designed to help those with little or no musical
training become qualified to teach the National Music Curriculum for
Forms I-IV.
The Bachelor of Arts in Music has two primary objectives: to train
music teachers that can build up and preserve the African music
heritage in schools and communities; and to train church musicians
that can raise the standard of music in the Tanzanian church, using both
African and Western musical traditions. Students will take a wide
variety of required courses including instruments, music theory, music
history from Africa, Europe, North & South America, Asia & the
Middle East, music production and business, music technology, various
ensembles, music education, conducting, and more. In the third year
students will be able to choose additional courses to specialize in
conducting, music technology, music education, church music, and
ethnomusicology.
Music Placement Test: All incoming music students will be given
Music Tests to determine basic skills in music theory and literacy.
Students will also prepare a performance (audition) for members of the
music faculty. Each applicant is required to prepare a vocal song and/or
instrumental piece on one or more instruments. These tests are designed
to evaluate the applicant's musical skills for placement, primary
instrument, and to determine the possible instrumental combinations for
future musical groupings.
Instruments: All music students will receive basic training on all
families of instruments (percussion, brass, strings, winds) plus piano
and voice instruction. Students will have opportunity to receive private
lessons if they demonstrate proficiency on a specific instrument upon
entry into the music degree programme.
Performance and Theory Standards: The Associated Board of the
Royal School of Music (ABRSM) standards will be used as guidelines
for practical studies (instruments and voice) and music theory, ear
72
training, and harmony. Teachers may also add additional relevant
materials from other sources.
Music Examinations: Because nearly all music courses contain
practical assessment, the weighting of coursework and university
examination is different than for other courses at Tumaini University
Makumira. The Department of Music has received special permission to
use 60% coursework and 40% university examination in courses with
practical assessment. Other music courses and all general university
courses will follow the usual 40% coursework and 60% university
examination scheme.
Special Music Fees: There is a fee of 10,000 Tsh per semester to assist
with maintenance of the instruments owned by the university (pianos,
brass, percussion, strings, woodwinds). This is required from all music
students and is addition to other required general university fees.

(MTAALA WA CHETI CHA MSINGI CHA UALIMU WA
ELIMU YA AWALI - NGAZI YA NNE)
Maelezo kuhusu mtaala
(Program Description- NTA Level 4)
Mtaala huu wa ngazi ya nne umetayarishwa ili kukabili changamoto za
elimu ya awali. Changamoto hizo ni pamoja na kuwa na walimu wasio
na sifa na elimu stahiki na hivyo kutowajenga na kutowaandaa vema
watoto kwa ajili ya kuanza elimu ya msingi. Matokeo yake ni kuwa na
kiwango duni cha uelewa wa watoto wanapokuwa elimu ya msingi na
hatimaye ufaulu wa elimu ya msingi kuendelea kushuka mwaka hadi
mwaka.
Mtaala wa Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Awali (Ngazi ya
Nne) ni sehemu ya kwanza ya mtaala wa Stashahada ya Ualimu wa
Elimu ya Awali utakaowawezesha waombaji wa mafunzo haya kusoma
kwa mfufulizo kutoka Cheti cha Msingi (Ngazi ya Nne) hadi kuhitimu
Stashahada (Ngazi ya Sita) kwa njia ya unyumbufu (flexible) ili kuwapa
uwezo wa kumudu ufundishaji. Aidha ngazi hii inakusudia kumwezesha
mhitimu kumudu masomo yafundishwayo katika elimu ya awali,
kuonyesha umahiri katika misingi ya elimu ya awali, na kupata stadi
katika masuala mtambuka na teknolojia ya habari na mawasiliano.
Hivyo mhitimu ataimarishwa kitaaluma zaidi katika ngazi hii.
Sababu ya Kuandaa Mtaala (Rationale of the Program)
Katika nchi yetu, shule za awali zinaongezeka sana hasa maeneo ya
mjini kutokana na mahitaji pamoja na uelewa wa jamii. Hata hivyo,
ufundishaji katika ngazi hii umekuwa ukionekana kama ni kazi
isiyohitaji mtu aliyesoma na kufaulu vizuri. Baadhi ya vyuo vimekuwa
vikidahili wanachuo wenye ufaulu mdogo katika kidato cha nne hadi
kufikia daraja la sifuri ili kusomea ualimu wa elimu ya awali. Hali hii
imejenga dhana kuwa ufundishaji katika shule za awali ni kazi za watu
wenye ufahamu mdogo. Wataalamu mbalimbali wa saikolojia ya mtoto
wanathibitisha kuwa katika kipindi cha miaka 0 – 8 ubongo wa
77
mwanadamu unakua kwa haraka kuliko kipindi chochote cha maisha
yake. Ni katika kipindi hiki ambapo misingi ya namna ya kuishi katika
jamii, tabia na mwenendo, kujiamini na ufahamu wa mambo mengi
kiakili unajengeka. Kwa hiyo, malezi ya mtoto katika nyanja za kiakili,
kimwili na kimwenendo yanahitajika. Katika hali hii, ni vema
kumwandaa mtoto katika mazingira mazuri ya malezi, makuzi na
ujifunzaji. Katika kuwalea na kuwawezesha watoto wa umri huu, ni
muhimu sana kuwa na walimu wenye uwezo mkubwa wa kutambua
tabia na mwenendo wa mtoto na kumwezesha kujifunza mambo
mbalimbali ya kumjenga kimaisha. Walimu hawa wanatakiwa
kuandaliwa kwa kuzingatia taratibu za malezi, makuzi na maendeleo ya
awali ya watoto. Hivyo basi, lengo kubwa la kuwa na mtaala wa
stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya Awali ni kutoa maarifa na ujuzi
stahiki katika kuwalea na kuwawezesha watoto kujifunza katika
vituo/shule za awali nchini.
Lengo na Madhumuni ya Mtaala (Program Objectives and Philosophy)
Mtaala wa Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Awali
umetayarishwa kwa lengo la kumwezesha mhitimu kukuza uwezo wake
kitaaluma katika masomo ya elimu ya sekondari, elimu ya ualimu na
masuala mtambuko ili aweze kuonesha uelewa mkubwa kwenye
masomo yafundishwayo katika elimu ya awali.
Matarajio ya Mtaala ( Program Expected Outcome)
Ifikiapo mwishom mwa mafunzo ya mtaaal huu, mhitimu anatarajiwa
aweze:
a) Kumudu stadi za Hisabati na Udadisi ili kuongeza upeo wa
kitaaluma;
b) Kumudu stadi za lugha ya Kiswahili na Kiingereza kwa ajili ya
kurahisisha ujifunzaji na ufundishaji;
c) Kukuza uwezo wa maarifa ili kukabiliana na changamoto zilizopo
katika kijamii;
d) Kuwa na uelewa wa misingi ya elimu katika kujenga uwezo wa
kufikiri kiyakinifu na kufanya maamuzi ya kielimu yenye mantiki;
na
e) Kujenga uwezo wa kufahamu masuala mtambuko ili kumuimarika
katika tabia, mwenendo na maadili ya ualimu.
Sifa za Udahili (Admission Criteria)
Ili kudahiliwa kwa ajili ya Cheti cha Msingi (ngazi ya nne) cha Ualimu
78
wa Elimu ya Awali, mwombaji anatakiwa awe na ufaulu wa kidato cha
nne usiopungua masomo manne yanayotahiniwa na Baraza la Mitihani
la Tanzania isipokuwa masomo ya dini. Ufaulu wa jumla uwe na alama
zisizozidi 27 kwa waombaji waliohitimu kabla ya mwaka 2013 na
alama zisizozidi 33 kwa wahitimu wanaoanzia mwaka 2013.
Muundo wa Kozi (Structure of the Program)
Muundo wa kozi kwa ujumla (General Program Structure)
Kozi hii ina jumla ya moduli 13 zilizopangwa katika semesta mbili
katika mwaka mmoja wa masomo. Semesta moja itakuwa na wiki 15 za
ufundishaji na ujifunzaji na wiki mbili kwa ajili ya mitihani ya mwisho.
Kwa hiyo semesta moja ina jumla ya wiki 17 ukiunganisha wiki mbili
za upimaji. Kwa mwaka mzima kozi itachukua wiki 34 kwa ajili ya
ufundishaji, ujifunzaji na upimaji. Katika mtaala huu moduli 5 kati ya
13 zimechukuliwa kutoka katika mtaala wa Stashahada ya Ualimu wa
Elimu ya Msingi ngazi ya nne.

(MTAALA WA CHETI CHA MSINGI CHA UALIMU WA
ELIMU YA MSINGI - NGAZI YA NNE)
(program description- NTA Level 4)
Mtaala huu wa ngazi ya nne umetayarishwa ili kukabili changamoto za
elimu ya msingi. Changamoto hizo ni pamoja na kiwango cha uelewa
wa wahitimu wa elimu ya msingi kuendelea kushuka mwaka hadi
mwaka, walimu wa shule za msingi kutomudu baadhi ya masomo au
mada katika ngazi ya msingi, udhaifu katika njia na mbinu za
ufundishaji na ubora wa walimu wa elimu ya msingi kitaaluma na
kitaalamu. Uchambuzi wa awali umebainisha kuwa waombaji wa
88
mafunzo ya ualimu wa daraja la IIIA hawana fursa ya kujiendeleza kwa
ngazi ya Stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi kwa kuwa katika
mfumo wa sasa ngazi ya Stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi
haipo.
Mtaala wa Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi (Ngazi ya
Nne) ni sehemu ya mtaala wa Stashahada ya Elimu ya Msingi
utakaowawezesha waombaji wa mafunzo ya ualimu wa daraja la IIIA
kusoma kwa mfufulizo kutoka Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu
ya Msingi (Ngazi ya Nne) hadi kuhitimu Stashahada ya Ualimu wa
Elimu ya Msingi kwa njia ya unyumbufu (flexible) ili kuwapa uwezo
wa kumudu ufundishaji wa elimu ya msingi. Baraza linatambua
kwamba ni jambo muhimu sana kuinua kiwango cha elimu ya msingi
kuanzia kwa walimu wenye elimu ya Cheti cha daraja la IIIA. Tofauti
kubwa kati ya mtaala huu na ule unaotumika kwa ajili ya kuwaandaa
walimu wa daraja la IIIA ni kwamba waombaji wa ualimu wa elimu ya
msingi wenye sifa za kidato cha nne sasa watapata fursa ya kusoma kwa
mfululizo kutoka Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi
(Ngazi ya Nne) hadi kuhitimu Stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya
Msingi bila kulazimika kufanya mitihani ya kidato cha sita. Mkazo
umewekwa katika kukuza taaluma katika maeneo ya Hisabati, Sayansi,
Lugha ya Kiingereza na matumizi ya Teknolojia ya Habari na
Mawasiliano (TEHAMA).
Aidha ngazi hii inakusudia kumwezesha mhitimu kumudu masomo
yafundishwayo katika elimu ya msingi, kuonyesha umahiri katika
misingi ya elimu, na kupata stadi katika masuala mtambuka na
teknolojia ya habari na mawasiliano. Hivyo mhitimu ataimarishwa
kitaaluma zaidi katika ngazi hii.
Taarifa mbalimbali zinaonyesha kuwa kiwango cha uelewa wa
wahitimu ya elimu msingi kinaendelea kushuka mwaka hadi mwaka.
Sababu mojawapo ya kushuka kwa elimu ni hali ya ufundishaji
usioridhisha kutokana na mapungufu katika ubora wa walimu wa elimu
ya msingi kitaaluma na kitaalamu. Mapungufu yaliyojitokeza
yanaonyesha uwezo mdogo wa walimu katika kumudu baadhi ya
masomo au mada katika ngazi ya msingi. Aidha ufundishaji wa masomo
89
ya elimu ya msingi umeonyesha upungufu katika masuala ya njia na
mbinu za ufundishaji.
Ili kukabiliana na changamoto hizi, Baraza lilishirikisha wadau wa
elimu ya msingi ili kupata maoni yao. Wadau walionyesha kuwa
walimu wa elimu msingi wanahitaji kuendelezwa ili kuinua uwezo wao
kitaaluma na kitaalamu. Wadau walipendekeza kuwa mwombaji wa
kozi ya Stashahda ya Elimu ya msingi mwenye elimu ya kidato cha nne
anapaswa atumie muda usiopungua miaka mitatu ili kupata ujuzi na
maarifa stahiki kwa ngazi hiyo.
Kwa walimu wa cheti cha daraja la IIIA na wahitimu wa kidato cha sita,
wadau walipendekeza muda wa mafunzo kuwa miaka miwili. Kwa
kuwa kiwango cha juu cha elimu ya walimu wa elimu ya msingi ni cheti
cha daraja la IIIA, ipo haja ya kupandisha kiwango kufikia ngazi ya
stashahada ya elimu ya msingi. Kwa mfumo uliopo, walimu wa cheti
cha daraja IIIA, hawana fursa ya kujiendeleza ngazi ya juu katika eneo
la ufundishaji wa elimu ya msingi.
Hali hii imekuwa ikiwakatisha tamaa walimu, jambo ambalo linaathiri
utendaji wao. Kwa kutambua changamoto hii Baraza limetayarisha
mtaala wa Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi (Ngazi ya
Nne), ili kutoa fursa ya kuwawewezesha waombaji wa Stashada ya
Elimu ya Msingi kusoma kwa unyumbufu. Wahitimu wa ngazi ya nne
watapata fursa ya kusoma ngazi tano na hatimaye ngazi ya sita.
Lengo na Madhumuni ya Mtaala (Program Objective and Philosophy)
Mtaala wa Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi
umetayarishwa kwa lengo la kumwezesha muhitimu kukuza uwezo
wake kitaaluma katika masomo ya elimu ya sekondari, elimu ualimu na
masuala mtambuka ili aweze kuonyesha uelewa mkubwa kwenye
masomo yafundishwayo katika elimu ya msingi.
Matarajio ya Mtaala
Kwa kuzingatia lengo kuu, madhumuni ya mtaala huu ni kama
lilivyoainishwa hapo juu, kumwezesha muhitimu:
a) Kumudu stadi za Hisabati na Sayansi ili kuongeza upeo wa
kitaaluma;
b) Kumudu stadi za lugha ya Kiswahili na Kiingereza kwa ajili ya
90
kurahisisha ujifunzaji na ufundishaji;
c) Kukuza uwezo wa maarifa ili kukabiliana na changamoto zilizopo
katika kijamii
d) Kuwa na uelewa wa falsafa ya elimu ya msingi katika kujenga
uwezo wa kufikiri kiyakinifu na kufanya maamuzi ya kielimu yenye
mantiki; na
e) Kujenga uwezo wa kufahamu masuala mtambuka ili kumuimarika
katika tabia, mwenendo na maadili ya ualimu.
Sifa za Udahili
Ili kudahiliwa kwa ajili ya Cheti cha Msingi cha Ualimu wa Elimu ya
Msingi, mwombaji anatakiwa awe na ufaulu wa kidato cha nne
usiopungua masomo manne, yenye uhusiano na masomo
yanayotahiniwa na Baraza la Mitihani la Tanzania kwa darasa la saba na
yenye jumla ya alama zisizozidi 27 kwa kuzingatia kigezo cha daraja A
alama 1, daraja B alama 2, daraja C alama 3, daraja D alama 4 na daraja
F alama 5.
Muundo wa Kozi Kozi kwa Ujumla
Kozi hii ina jumla ya moduli 11 zilizopangwa katika semesta mbili
katika mwaka mmoja wa masomo. Semesta moja itakuwa na wiki 15 za
ufundishaji na ujifunzaji na wiki mbili kwa ajili ya mitihani ya mwisho.
Kwa hiyo semesta moja ina jumla ya wiki 17 ukiunganisha wiki mbili
za upimaji. Kwa mwaka mzima kozi itachukua wiki 34 kwa ajili ya
ufundishaji, ujifunzaji na upimaji.

- NGAZI YA SITA
(program description – NTA Level 6)
Mtaala huu wa ngazi ya sita umetayarishwa ili kukabili changamoto za
elimu ya awali. Changamoto hizo ni pamoja na kuwa na walimu wasio
na sifa na elimu stahiki na hivyo kutowajenga na kutowaandaa vema
watoto kwa ajili ya kuanza elimu ya msingi. Matokeo yake ni kuwa na
mwaka.
Mtaala huu ni sehemu ya tatu ya mtaala wa Stashahada ya Ualimu wa
Elimu ya Awali (Ngazi ya Sita). Lengo la ngazi hii ni kumwezesha
mhitimu kuonyesha umahiri wa kitaaluma katika masomo ya elimu ya
awali na kupanua uelewa wa saikolojia na unasihi pamoja na kupima
na kutathmini maendeleo ya mtoto. Aidha ngazi hii ya mafunzo
inakusudia pia kumwezesha mhitimu kusimamia utekelezaji wa sera,
sheria, miongozo na kanuni za elimu ya awali; kusimamia afya za
watoto; kutumia misingi na stadi za uongozi katika kuongoza na
kushauri, na kufanya tafiti saidizi za kielimu kwa kutumia mbinu
stahiki. Ni mategemeo ya Baraza kuwa mhitimu wa ngazi hii atakuwa
na stadi na uwezo wa kutumia ujuzi na maarifa katika utendaji kazi
kwa mapana zaidi; nyingi zikiwa juu ya kiwango cha kawaida kama
anavyoelekezwa pamoja na kuwajibika binafsi na uwezo wa
kusimamia wengine.

wenye ufahamu mdogo.
Wataalamu mbalimbali wa saikolojia ya mtoto wanathibitisha kuwa
katika kipindi cha miaka 0 – 8 ubongo wa mwanadamu unakua kwa
haraka kuliko kipindi chochote cha maisha yake. Ni katika kipindi hiki
ambapo misingi ya namna ya kuishi katika jamii, tabia na mwenendo,

ORDINARY DIPLOMA IN PRIMARY EDUCATION
(MTAALA STASHAHADA YA UALIMU WA ELIMU YA
MSINGI - NGAZI YA SITA)
(Program Description – NTA LEVEL 6)
Mtaala huu wa ngazi ya sita umetayarishwa ili kukabili changamoto za
kitaalamu. Uchambuzi wa awali umebainisha kuwa wahitimu wa
Ualimu wa daraja la IIIA hawana fursa ya kujiendeleza kwa ngazi ya
stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi kwa kuwa katika mfumo
wa sasa ngazi ya stashahada haipo. Kwa kutambua changamoto hizi,
Baraza liliamua kuandaa mtaala wa Stashahada ya Elimu ya Msingi ili
kuwawezesha wahitimu wa Cheti cha Ualimu (ngazi ya tano) ambao
wanatokana na wahitimu wa ngazi ya nne (waliokuwa wahitimu wa
kidato cha nne), walimu wa daraja la IIIA au wahitimu wa kidato cha
sita waweze kujiendeleza hadi Stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya
Msingi (Ngazi ya Sita) kwa njia ya unyumbufu (flexible) ili kuwapa
uwezo wa kumudu ufundishaji wa elimu ya msingi.
106
masomo au mada katika ngazi ya msingi. Aidha ufundishaji wa
masomo ya elimu ya msingi umeonyesha upungufu katika masuala ya
njia na mbinu za ufundishaji.
kozi ya Stashahda ya Elimu ya msingi mwenye elimu ya kidato cha
nne anapaswa atumie muda usiopungua miaka mitatu ili kupata ujuzi
na maarifa stahiki kwa ngazi hiyo.
Kwa walimu wa cheti cha daraja la IIIA na wahitimu wa kidato cha
sita, wadau walipendekeza muda wa mafunzo kuwa miaka miwili. Kwa
kuwa kiwango cha juu cha elimu ya walimu wa elimu ya msingi ni
cheti cha daraja la IIIA, ipo haja ya kupandisha kiwango kufikia ngazi
ya stashahada ya elimu ya msingi. Kwa mfumo uliopo, walimu wa
cheti cha daraja IIIA, hawana fursa ya kujiendeleza ngazi ya juu katika
eneo la ufundishaji wa elimu ya msingi.
mtaala wa Stashahada ya Ualimu wa Elimu ya Msingi, ili kutoa fursa
kwa walimu wa cheti cha daraja la IIIA na wahitimu wa kidato cha sita
kujiendelea katika kufundisha katika Elimu ya Msingi.
Aidha kutokana na maoni ya wadau, walimu wengi wanaofundisha
katika shule za msingi ambao wana tuzo ya stashahada au zaidi
wanapata nafasi ya kuteuliwa kuwa walimu wakuu. Hivyo ngazi hii
pamoja na kujenga ubobezi wa mwalimu katika kufundisha masomo
chaguzi, imejikita katika kumpa mwanachuo stadi za kuongoza shule
kwa kuzingatia miongozo iliyopo na kwa kushirikisha wadau.
Wahitimu wa stashahada watapata fursa ya kujiendeleza katika ngazi
ya elimu ya juu ili kujenga uwezo wa kutatua changamoto za elimu ya
msingi kisayansi.

intensive orientation to and mastery of the knowledge, skills and
attributes essential for those who would teach in the secondary schools
in Tanzania and beyond administered by authorized school authorities,
with particular reference to the unique environment of the Tumaini
University Makumira (TUMA) / TUMA seek teachers who can
articulate what it means to a professional teacher and admininstrator and
who are able to integrate their faith and culture in an all-inclusive
community. The degree program is structured to achieve that objective.
Instruction is delivered by a combination of core education faculty
members and experienced field practitioners who have attained
advanced academic training in the field of educational studies combined
with extensive experience as teachers.

Rationale for Development of Programme
Tanzania as any other country in the world is faced with rapid socioeconomical changes. The inevitability of change is unavoidable
phenomenon but it is necessary to create a smooth and peaceful
transition to change and avoid crisis in the process.
Bachelor of Education has emerged to be of necessity because of
following reasons:
113
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
vi.
Socio-economic and socio-political changes are putting pressure on
individuals to acquire knowledge and skills to cope with
competitive world in all aspects of life.
Economic policies and democratization of governance require
individuals with necessary skills to engage in development and
social well-being in a competing basis.
The changing social infrastructures had also encouraged
urbanization that raises concern.
Due to urbanization there are emerging social crises in a
multifaceted manner. As a result of different types of crises face
families and individuals
The emerging technological systems and values are causing serious
concerns to parents, guardians and society. Drug addiction,
alcoholic behaviour, sexual abuse, prostitution and pornography
viewing are becoming the order of the day. Refugees, divorcee‘s,
street children and delinquents are at the shooting rate.
Economically, unemployment, bankruptcy, retirement, and many
others are causing much pain, anxiety and different other kinds of
emotional disorders.
As a society, Tanzania needs professional Teachers who can offer
guidance in such societal needs. Persons working in educational
institutions, health service centres, rehabilitation centres,
community welfare service institutions and law enforcement
practitioners need Teaching professional skills so that they are
enabled to revert many social deviations and abnormalities to
normal social acceptable conduct.
Programme Objectives and Philosophy
The Bachelor of Education is the major programme of the Faculty
of Education. The Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) programme offered
at Tumaini University Makumira, is specifically designed to produce
high-quality educational officers and secondary school teachers
specifically trained to teach languages, foreign and domestic to
Tanzania, in the areas of Kiswahili, English and French; other
teachers are trained to teach Geography, History and Computer
Science. The emphasis is however placed on profession education
studies. Teaching subjects are taken from the Faculty of Humanities and
114
Social Sciences and Faculty of Science and Technology.
As it is common practice in dynamic programmes, the B.
Ed. Programme at TUMA is always subjected to review in order to
update it and as the need arises, even add new courses through
the relevant TUMA and TCU boards.
The objectives of the B.Ed Programme are the same as those of
the Faculty of Education.
Program Expected Outcome
TUMA‘s BED graduates are expected to:
a) Understand and acquire basic Principles of Teaching and related
skills in handling daily students‘ matters.
b) Explain the importance of Education in Education System of
Tanzania to students
c) Apply set policies from reports made that will assist in the future
performance of the institution.
d) Understand matters related to handling Education for young
children.
Structure of the Program
BED programme will comprise SIX semesters covering a three-year
period. The BED degree programme consists of core and elective
courses from semesters I to VI. While in semester VI , the program
gives students opportunity to do research work leading to writing a well
researched paper based on identified educational issue. The total
number of credits for each semester should not be below 20 (60 for the
new TCU coding system), and for the year 40 (120: TCU). No student
shall be allowed to graduate if s/he has not cleared all the required
courses. The minimum credits requirement for graduation is 120 (360

Program Description
The Bachelor of Education in Early Childhood Education, Care and
Development (BECE) is aimed at filling this gap. It is also in
accordance with Ministry of Education policy to make sure that preprimary education becomes a corner stone for the improvement of the

preparation and development of specialists who will pave the way for
innovative practices, offer leadership in curriculum development,
spearhead the integrated services approach and engage in research
activities that would enrich their knowledge about children from birth to
eight years. The programme seeks to build on the work that has been
done in the Diploma Programme by the Teachers‘ Training Colleges.

Rationale for development of programme
Since independence Tanzania has been struggling to strengthen primary
education. Currently, Tanzania has made significant progress in the
development of primary education. The Primary Education
Development Programme (PEDP) has contributed significantly to the
development of this basic education sector (Tanzania Education Sector
Analysis, UNESCO, Dar es Salaam, 2011). However, in recent years,
despite the encouraging enrollment in primary education the quality of
education is still poor and does not allow young people to create
employment or compete in the labour market (Sumra &Katabaro 2014,
Declining Quality of Education: Suggestions for Arresting and
Reversing the Trend, ESRF). It is this need of improving the quality of
education in primary education that has necessitated Tumaini University

capacity to deal with educational problems
132
(iii) To expose student teachers to various teaching methods and
strategies applied in the delivery of primary education
(iv) To impart educational management and leadership skills to primary
school teachers
(v) To equip teachers with knowledge and skills for proper application
of technology in teaching and learning
Programme expected learning outcomes
On successful completion of the programme, the graduates are expected
to:
 Demonstrate competence in both content and pedagogy of primary
education
 Analyze primary education curriculum and implement it
appropriately
 Become reflective, creative and critical in both practice and
approach to teaching and learning
 Develop teaching and learning materials for primary school pupils
 Analyse primary education curriculum and implement it
appropriately
 Demonstrate skills in managing primary school classrooms
 Assess teaching and learning using appropriate approaches and
procedures

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN COMPUTER AND
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
Bachelor of Science in Computer and Information Management (B.Sc.
CIM) equips individuals with knowledge, skills and competencies to use
a computer for many tasks - from word processing to surfing the Web to
managing your music, photo, and movie collections.
Algorithmic Thinking
It focuses on the discovery and development of algorithms, or methods
of solving problems that can be automated. No matter what field you
work in, if you can conceptualize the solution of a problem as an
153
algorithm, that problem can be solved with a computer. Algorithmic
thinking that you learn to do in computer science is a systematic and
general-purpose approach to problem solving that cuts across all of the
disciplines in science, engineering, and the arts.
Designing and Making Things
It has sometimes been called the "science of the artificial". Computer
scientists design and construct descriptions (algorithms) of entirely new
processes never before encountered in nature. These processes can make
or bring into being an entirely artificial world. Unlike the real world of
artifacts created by artists, craftsmen, and engineers, the world created
by computer scientists can be entirely virtual. By learning how to design
and make things in computer science, you will become a better designer
and maker of things in any field.
Information Architecture
The "things" that the computer scientist makes and manipulates with
algorithms are pieces of information. Many of these "bits" are digitized
representations of "real things", such as photographs, musical tunes, and
movies. The computer scientist focuses on how to organize and control
the complexity of this information so that it can better represent reality.
The skills of organizing and managing the complexity of information
that you acquire in computer science are important in almost any area of
work or study.

FACULTY OF THEOLOGY
MASTER OF BIBLICAL STUDIES
This Programme falls under the cluster of Theology/Religion. A student
can major either in Old Testament or New Testament studies and be
offered a Master of Theology in Biblical Studies.
The Bible carries with it a tradition of exclusivism whereby those who
do not belong to the own people or culture, or the non-believer has been
presented as a lower person, as the ―other‖. From first being a religion
for the ―under-dog‖, Christianity became a religion for imperial
ambitions. It gave the right to ―save‖ subjects away from inferior
cultures. This western tradition was also brought to Africa by colonizers
and their missionaries. Sometimes this was a conscious part of these
imperial ambitions and sometimes it was just a part of the Christian
heritage. As such it just continues affecting our self-understandings,
both as descendants to the African subjects and to its previous masters.
We both need to rethink our identities.
To do this we need to penetrate through centuries of biblical
interpretation. We need to go all the way back to the exclusivistic texts
in the Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek New Testament, but also to
the liberating texts where the Israelites and the young Church searched
for their identities. We need to see how these texts have been used both
as a tool for subduing and in some cases for liberation through history
until the present. How come that even after decenniums of
independence, liberation theology and restoration, resources and power
are still unequally distributed in the World, in Africa and especially in
East-Africa? Many women are still suffering from not only traditional
patriarchal structures, but also from those in the Bible. How can the
churches in East-Africa and in the rest of the world find back to an
identity of empowering the ―under-dog‖?
Vision of Studies
Our vision is to make Makumira an East-African center for frontline
research and teaching concerning the shaping of identities, with special
emphasis on the African Christian identities. In its initial phase this will
192
take place within the field of Biblical studies, where the post-colonial
approach will play a central part. We will discuss the Bible as a product
in an Ancient colonial context, the use of the Bible in a more recent
colonial context (especially East-Africa) and the reactional models to
this, especially during the postcolonial era. Very often African studies in
this field lack a strong exegetical foundation with a deep knowledge of
the biblical languages. As a Lutheran institution, it is fundamental for us
to emphasize a solid exegetical foundation. The revised Master course
in Biblical studies should prepare ground for other theological areas.
International Benchmarking
Internationally issues concerning identity-shaping processes have come
more into focus and the Faculty of Theology has traditionally dealt with
these issues in other disciplines. Hierarchal power structures have
become the focus in sociological studies with different perspectives as
gender and postcolonial. Often these are done in a western context
where these structures are very different from the African context. In
Africa, there is a struggle to find an identity within a world with many
different religious traditions and a society influenced by previous
colonial powers. Here oppressive structures are still often normative in
large parts of society. Tribal society coexists with a modern, postmodern and global world. Should traditional African cultural aspects be
a part of the Christian African Society, and if so, which parts? Is there
an African way to read the Bible? These issues should not be studied
only in a distant environment in the West, but in its own context. We are
not pioneers within this field, as this approach has been developed
elsewhere e. g. in South-Africa and Nigeria. Also in East-Africa this
path has been followed by individual scholars, but we lack a strong
institution with this perspective. Further, African approaches have been
predominantly hermeneutical, often lacking a strong exegetical
foundation. Therefore developing this programme with these ambitions
will make biblical studies have significant contribution to African
theological, social, and cultural issues.
Target Students
The planned Biblical Master is important for our own students within
the Lutheran churches in Africa who need possibilities to higher
education. The issues are however also important in the ecumenical
193
discussions, and therefore we will welcome theology students from
other denominations. The program also aims at being part of the global
academic dialogue and we will therefore invite students from any part of
the world to take part in the full program (2 years) or for individual
semesters. We will also provide opportunities for scholars to spend a
sabbatical at the University to conduct research within the field of
identity issues.
Content of the Studies
Students of the Master program will be able to choose between an Old
or a New Testament emphasis. Relevant Biblical texts will be studied in
its original language, using different tools and methods as literary,
rhetorical, narrative and sociological criticism. The society, in which the
Biblical texts were shaped, will be discussed in detail with a focus on
the search for an identity of the Israelite and Early Church communities.
Their relation with its colonial powers, e. g. the Persian, Hellenistic and
Roman empires, will be analysed. The use of the Biblical texts by later
colonial powers, especially in the African sphere, as well as their
subjects‘ conformation or dis-conformation to this will be scrutinized.
Further will the post-colonial situation, including the era of
globalization, and the use of the Bible in the search for an African
identity in society and in the different churches be evaluated. In all these
perspectives hierarchal structures will be examined.
Sabbatical lecturers. Our aim is also to invite international authorities
in this field of research, as lecturers.
Entry Requirements
A students applying for Master of Biblical Studies should have a
Bachelor of Divinity or equivalent. For those following the Old
Testament version, previous studies in Biblical Hebrew is required. For
those following the New Testament version, Biblical or Classical Greek
(koine) is required.
Also sponsored international students are welcome for the full program
or for a shorter period. Minimum is one semester.
Programme Structure
This is a two year programme with first year semesters intensively used
for course subjects and second year semester used for research
194
proposals and dissertation. Dissertation carries the highest amount of

MASTER OF THEOLOGY IN HEALTH AND GENDER
The Master of Theology in Health and Gender degree programme is a
continuation of Tumaini University Makumira dealing with issues of
health and gender through the Faculty of Theology. In the past three
decades Tumaini University Makumira has engaged in responding to the
HIV/AIDs pandemic by introducing a Masters programme of Theology
in HIV/AIDS. The lessons learnt from this programme have seen
Makumira embarking in a more comprehensive programme of Master of
200
Theology that includes all health issues and gender justice.
It is apparent that issues of health cannot ignore infancy and childhood.
A healthy person should have undergone through good antenatal and
postnatal care. It is no wonder that Tumaini University Makumira
initiates a holistic view of health with a strategy to have reproductive
health as a theological focal point to redress issue of gender inequity
and poor health provision especially to women and children.
Statistics show that African countries and Tanzania in particular have
high rates of infant and maternal mortality. Causes attributed to this
situation range from economic, social, cultural and religious ones. These
form multiple intersectional complexities in terms sexuality,
relationships, maternal and child health and reproduction choices.
The religious and cultural understanding in a larger number of churches
in Africa on issues related to Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights
(SRHR) has always supported to reduce the ability of men and women
to live equally supportively, to decide over their own bodies and
sexuality and have viable plans for their reproductive choices.
Theologically Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights can be interpreted
as both human dignity and inclusiveness.
Theological reflections on gender and health have a strong biblical
foundation from creation story that regard women and men as equally
created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27). It is from such a strong
theological conviction that Christians believe in equality of both men
and women (Galatians 3:28).
However, the perverting gender inequality in the church and society and
misunderstanding of gender issues complicate the opportunity for
women and men to equally contribute to sustainable livelihoods for
themselves and for their families. Depending on social systems many
women engage more in economic activities but they have little power to
decide on the outcome of their productivity. Many women have been
empowered with knowledge on antenatal care, but since they have no
decisions on the resources to support the programme they end up not
201
using the knowledge. Men who have power to decide about the use of
resources they lack knowledge on antenatal care which is the main
cause of higher maternal and child mortality and this deficiency has a
direct impact on child health and nutrition.
Gender inequality is also linked to both gender based violence (GBV)
and women's and girls' illiteracy and malnutrition, where in many
instances women and girls are the last in the family to get food. Such
links are easily overlooked by theologians and religious leaders and lead
to stereotyping gender relations between men and women, largely
regarding men as superior over women. Thus, theological foundations
on issues of gender equality and health are needed to address this
problem.
Objectives of the Programme
The programme introduces in a specific way the relationship between
theology/religion, health and gender, and how such intersectionality can
help theologians and religious leaders to address the problem of gender
inequality and health issues, especially of men and women. This
programme mainstreams health and gender into theological courses that
make a foundation of the interpretation of these issues. The aim is to
produce theological knowledge that will support skills and competence
of theologians and religious leaders to deal with issues of gender
inequality and health of children, women and men. Thus this
programme is built on the following objectives:
 To strengthen theological praxis and awareness on intersectionality
of issues related to health, gender and theology.
 To integrate empowerment of local church and community leaders
in the theological reflections so that they can challenge gender
inequalities and promote child and maternal health.
 To mainstream gender and health in theological disciplines in order
for theology to contribute to gender balance through men and
women's participation in every step of life from needs assessment to
implementation at all levels of issues related to health and gender.
General Expected Learning Outcomes
At the end of the programme students will have:
202




Specialized knowledge in the field of theology and intersectionality
between theology health and gender.
A systematic, extensive and comparative theological knowledge and
its relationship to intersection of it with health and gender.
A critical understanding of the established theories, principles and
concepts, and a number of advanced and emerging issues in health
and gender.
Specialized skills required to promote their profession and use
established techniques to undertake critical analysis of information
on issues of theology, health and gender for addressing issues of
gender inequality and poor support of health to all sexes.
Programme Structure
This is a two year full-time Programme. It has four semesters. The first
semester is intensively used for theoretical introductions to different
subjects, while the second semester consolidates the practicability of the
knowledge in the fields of health and gender. The third semester is used
to consolidate research needs and plans for study of different topics
related to the intersectionality of theology, health and gender. The
fourth semester is used for crafting research and writing research
dissertations. Course assessment and evaluation follow the general
format of the university. The grading systems also follow the general
format. The old systems of credits continue to be applicable. The
inserted university qualification framework awaits approval from the
university academic boards. However, old and UQF credit systems do
not affect grading system.

MASTER OF ARTS IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING
The Master of Arts in English Language Teaching (MA ELT) is a
marketable programme in most native English speaking countries. It has
been a tradition for non-native aspiring English teachers to travel
211
‗abroad‘ to countries where English is a ‗native‘ language to learn
advanced methodologies and approaches on the professional teaching of
English as a foreign language. Majority of these non-native English
speaking countries have raised the status of English to a co-official
language and de facto -franca in business, medium of instruction in
higher level of education, computers and tourism, yet very little (if any)
has been done to offer exclusively English teaching programmes at
their graduate programmes. The experience in Tanzania has shown that
the bulk of current English teachers are drawn from programmes that
have minimal specialization in English pedagogy. As a matter of
urgency, Tanzania needs specialized programmes to exclusively train
English teachers at graduate degree level. This will help to fill the gap
of the English teachers in higher institutions especially at this time when
Communication Skills is a compulsory university wide course that is
supposed to raise proficiency levels of its graduates. The programme
explores the relationship between theory and practice in language
teaching and acquisition of contemporary knowledge in principles of
language teaching in a variety of contexts. It also offers students
understanding of recent theories, research findings and practical issues
to enable them to evaluate critically current English teaching materials
and evaluation procedures. It enables students to acquire the knowledge,
range of capabilities, experiences and qualities required for the English
teaching profession. It then provides students with necessary skills to
carry out independent research in the area of ELT.
Entry Requirements
Applicants should have a First- Class, Second-Class Bachelor degree or
equivalent grade in humanities from an accredited/approved university
or equivalent institution of higher learning and must be highly proficient
in English. The Faculty would welcome students with little or no
classroom teaching experience but with some firm background in
English. They ought to have taken some courses in the English language
(or studied as a minor).
For further information on other entry requirements refer to general
Master Programme requirements.
Programme Structure
In order to receive the M.A. English Language Teaching degree a
212
candidate must Complete 36 Credits of coursework in the first and
second semester. After a successful completion of all the courses with a
mean over-all grade of ―B‖ or above, students will be allowed to
proceed to the third and fourth semester courses in Research
Methodology Seminar leading to Independent Dissertation on a topic
related to English language totaling 18 credits. In general, students will

FACULTY OF LAW
MASTER OF LAW IN HUMAN RIGHTS
The Faculty of Law of Tumaini University Makumira was created in
2004 to respond to the country‘s needs in getting qualified lawyers. The
graduate‘s profile since then has been to the award of a bachelor‘s
degree in law (LLB). It is true that this level is not less important but a
6 years period of existence is enough for the University to start a
master‘s programme in law.
It is considered that East Africa has had many challenges, including
internal conflicts, border disputes, poverty, starvation, drought, gender
inequality, cross-border intervention, refugees, internally displaced
people, environmental degradation, human rights violations, forced
disappearances, scarcity of resources, bad governance, power abuse and
terrorism. The promotion of human rights with a holistic approach is the
only solution which can salvage a ravaged region like East Africa. The
Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the African
Union (AU), the African Court of Human and Peoples‘ Rights and the
East African Court of Justice are the most important regional
organizations which can promote human rights at the sub-regional level.
Nowadays, human rights issues have taken a new dimension and have
become a central point for many programmes. Due to these
advancements at international and regional levels, human rights
protection becomes a cornerstone for the development of the members
of the East African community.
This is a specialized advanced degree designed to impart advanced
knowledge of the chosen courses through intensive research and a firm
theoretical grounding.
This programme has been designed to provide a deep understanding
about human rights law, including some course topics on international
humanitarian law and international criminal law. The contents of the
programme cover a different range of topics including human rights and
international law, Constitutional Law and Constitutional Rights in the
East African Community, Comparative Immigration and Nationality
217
Law, International Criminal Law, Natural Resources and the Law,
International Protection of Women‘s Rights, International Humanitarian
Law, etc.
The contents have been prepared in the context of Tanzania and the East
African Community. However, great consideration has also been given
to international principles related to human rights law. The programme
will cover international and regional experiences with special attention
to the domestic issues of Tanzania.
Nature and Duration of the Programme
This programme is offered by Coursework and Thesis.
The first component, namely course work shall cover two semesters
involving full-time attendance. In each semester, every student will have
to follow three core courses and choose one optional course from a list
of available optional courses released by the Faculty Dean.
The thesis shall be prepared during the second year of study. Not later
than two weeks before the end of the second semester of the first year, a
candidate shall submit to the Faculty Dean a research topic for thesis
which will serve to determine availability of supervisor(s). Research
proposals shall be completed within the first eight weeks of the first
semester.
The faculty board shall assign Research supervisors not later than two
weeks after the commencement of the first semester of the second year.
For more information see University General Regulations relating to
submission of research papers.

MASTER OF INTERNATIONAL LAW WITH INTERNATIONAL
RELATIONS
Tumaini University Makumira proposes to start a Master‘s program
with a dissertation in international law with international relations (LLM
ILR).
The program offers an advanced, interdisciplinary understanding of the
inter-relationships between international politics and international law.
In global affairs, governments, inter-governmental institutions, nongovernmental organizations and multinational corporations are engaged
in a constant making and remaking of political and legal rules and
procedures. For people involved in global governance, it is necessary to
be able to analyze and interpret legal and political developments in a
transnational context.
Not only have societies have become increasingly connected and
interdependent, the range of policy issues that fall within the remit of
global politics has increased dramatically and these issue areas tend to
be both highly juridical as well as intrinsically political. For quite some
time now, international relations have superseded the level of traditional
interstate diplomacy. International relations increasingly include the
rules and standards of economic interaction, global communications,
international human rights, and the management of the global commons
(e.g. the environment).
There is, then, a demand in academia, in national and international
policy-making communities, in the NGO community and the
transnational business sector, for personnel with in-depth knowledge
and understanding of how international politics is practiced through law
and how international law functions against the backdrop of political
contexts. Drawing on the research expertise of interdisciplinary
scholars, this course aims to provide Tumaini University Makumira
students with such knowledge and understanding.
221
The program shall be by course work and dissertation. The normal
duration of the full program is two academic years.
This program will be open to candidates holding a LLB degree or its
equivalent.
The Main Goal
The main goal of this program is to offer an advanced, interdisciplinary
understanding of the inter-relationships between international politics
and international law. In global affairs, governments, intergovernmental institutions, non-governmental organizations and
multinational corporations are engaged in a constant making and
remaking of political and legal rules and procedures. For people
involved in global governance, it is necessary to be able to analyze and
interpret legal and political developments in a transnational context.
This is an innovative postgraduate program developed for graduates
willing to deepen their knowledge of the fields of international law and
international relations through an immediate privileged experience with
a distinguished faculty and top-level professionals.
The program aims at providing a well-balanced combination of theory
and practice, by focusing on the interdisciplinary approach to legal,
historical, and context-sensitive socioeconomic and political factors that
shape our world, especially those emerging issues that challenge today‘s
global system: trade, finance, security, information and communication
technology, energy, environment and global networks. Coursework
provides exposure to the key subfields of the discipline and relevant
issues such as globalization, human rights, humanitarian action, and
economic development.
The privileged partnership with important academics from different
countries and leading professionals from multinational companies,
international institutions, and non-governmental organizations will
allow students to take part in team projects and individual internships.
Specific objectives
This program aims to:
 raise students‘ critical awareness of major issues in international

law and international relations;
facilitate at an advanced level suitable for postgraduate studies an
assessment and a detailed understanding of the study of
international politics;
inculcate the ability to discuss, in an informed, coherent and critical
way, issues of political thought;
facilitate an understanding of the complex relationship between
international relations as a discipline and international law, and by
extension the multidisciplinarity and interdisciplinarity as applied to
the academic study of human rights;
develop the students‘ confidence to think creatively;
ensure that students are able not only to assess the benefits of social
research methods to the study of international law, but are fully
equipped with the skills and confidence necessary to undertake
research in this area;
develop an understanding of the relationship between theory and
social ―reality‖, in particular the reality of human rights concerns in
the contemporary context;
improve the transferable skills of coherent and rational argument
and the written and oral expression of ideas;
prepare students for careers beyond their curriculum through the
development of practical, technical and transferable skills to
suitable employment of higher degree;
allow students the opportunity to develop an original piece of
academic writing in their discipline on a topic of interest to them,
demonstrating an advanced understanding of current research and to
make a contribution to debates in progress.
Nature and Duration of the Program
This program is offered by Coursework and dissertation. These two
components shall cover four semesters involving full-time attendance.
Every student will have to follow four courses during the first two
semesters and three courses during the third semester. The dissertation
can be prepared in the course of the three semesters but the student will
be given the third semester to have completed and submitted the
dissertation.
223
To be considered for admission to this program, a candidate must have a
first or a second class LLB degree of Tumaini University Makumira or
an accredited University or has satisfied the requirements for the award
of such degree.
Exceptionally, candidates with a good honors degree in international
relations or political science will be considered for admission once the
admission board is satisfied with their academic background.
If judged appropriate, each candidate will be called to appear for
interview before the admission board.
Considering the difficulties in the supervision of theses, this program
will not admit more than 20 students.
