Higher Education in Tanzania

A Case Study

by Daniel Mkude, Brian Cooksey and Lisbeth Levey

  • Description
  • Reviews
Examines institutional transformation in the University of Dar es Salaam.

The Partnership for Higher Education in Africa commissioned case studies of higher education provision in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa, as part of its effort to stimulate enlightened, equitable, and knowledge-based national development, and to provide guides to understanding.

The University of Dar es Salaam has put in place measures to stop the process of decay and better fulfil its core functions - the unity and commitment within its leadership attracting both government and donors. This text explores the attributes needed to harvest the fruits of the reform.

"... the volumes [in the series] provide an invaluable source of comparative financial and institutional data for what one hopes will be a growing field of African higher education studies. ...In African Studies, the James Currey publishing house needs no introduction. The place of journals and publishers within African networks deserves more sustained attention. -" David Mills, AFRICAN AFFAIRS
"...grounds for renewed optimism for the future offered at present by, among other developments, the Partnership for Higher Education -" ARAS, Australia
"... the book is written with clarity and offers a rich text for lessons on institutional transformation, ... UDSM's journey to recovery is inspirational. -" Mahlubi Mabizela, MODERN AFRICAN STUDIES
