Regulations Governing the Award of the BSc Degree

CoAF is running programmes under the semester system whereby the academic year is
subdivided into 2 semesters of teaching, each lasting 15 weeks. Each of its disciplines offers
a variety of courses, including core courses, which are compulsory to students majoring in the
subject, and elective courses. Each course is given a credit weighting according to the time
devoted to it following the Tanzania Commission for Universities guidelines. One credit
equates to learning outcomes achieved in 10 hours of learning, which includes activities such
as lectures, seminars/tutorials, assignments, independent studies and practical training.

General Regulations
CoAF general regulations governing the operation of its programmes are in line with the
University level regulations. Because of multi-disciplinarily nature of the programmes, both
general and specific regulations have been benchmarked with regulations in other colleges.
1 A minimum of 360 credits must be passed for the award of a 3-year degree (BSc ASF,
BSc BST, BSc CST, and BSc ANEB). Passing a course shall mean scoring a C grade or

84 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

higher which is equivalent to 40% or higher.
2 A minimum of 480 credits must be passed for the award of a 4-year degree (BSc FST,
and BSc AEM). Passing a course shall mean scoring a C grade or higher which is
equivalent to scoring 40% or higher.
3 All students must pass the core courses in Development Studies (100 series).
4 Each student shall register for courses totalling at least 120 credits per academic year or
for the minimum necessary to complete his/her degree programme.
5 In addition to core courses required for his/her programme, a student may choose as an
elective any course for which he/she can meet the prerequisite/co-requisite requirements
and which is compatible with the teaching timetable (subject to regulation No. 4).
6 No student will be permitted to commence or withdraw from any course more than four
weeks after the beginning of the semester.
7 Students may be admitted to the College of Agricultural Sciences and Fisheries
Technology as transfer students in accordance with UDSM regulations on students’ credit
transfer.
8 The regulations governing the Aquatic Science Major of the BSc General Programme are
provided under the CoNAS regulations.

Examination Regulations
9 Except for Practical training/Field attachment/Industrial training courses, each course will
be offered and assessed in the same semester and a grade awarded. The grade will be
based on an end of course examination and a course work assessment.
10 Except for project/practical related courses, continuous assessment shall include at least
one test per semester, among other assessment means approved by CoAF academic
committee (e.g. practicals, assignments, presentations). The coursework assessment shall
normally constitute 40% of the total course assessment. Coursework assessment, may
however, with the approval of Senate, constitute up to 100% of the total course assessment
provided that where it exceeds 40% the assignments on which it is based shall be available
for scrutiny by the Independent Internal Examiner.
11 Monitoring of the student progress in each course will be based on the following:
11.1Grade to marks (%) correspondence

A = 70 – 100 C = 40 – 49
B+ = 60 – 69 D = 35 – 39
B = 50 – 59 E = 0 – 34
Grade to points correspondence

A B+ B C D E
5 4 3 2 1 0

11.2 Course grade multiplied by the appropriate credit weighting will be accumulated over
the whole period of study and will form the basis for the assessment of the degree.

12 An average grade for each academic year shall be worked out by adding together, by
means of weighting points, all the grades of the core and elective courses. The following
points to grade correspondence shall apply in monitoring the student’s progress in each

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 85

academic year.
4.4 – 5.0 = A 3.5 – 4.3 = B+
2.7 – 3.4 = B 2.0 – 2.6 = C
1.0 – 1.9 = D 0.0 – 0.9 = E

13 A student, who has passed courses totalling more than 360 credits in a three-year
programme and 480 in a four-year programme, shall have one or more elective course
excluded from the assessment in the degree classification. The assessment shall in this
case exclude those elective courses in which the student had the worst performance.
14 The degree classification shall be based on the best 360 and 480 credits respectively
provided that regulations Nos. 1 to 4 above are fulfilled. The classification shall be as
follows:
First class 4.4 – 5.0
Upper second 3.5 – 4.3
Lower second 2.7 – 3.4
Pass 2.0 – 2.6
15 To be allowed to continue with any degree programme in CoAF, a student must pass all
the prescribed core courses in a programme and attain an overall GPA of 2.0 or above.
16 A student not in his/her final year of study must score at least a C average at 2.0 in all core
courses in that programme to qualify for supplementary examinations.
17 A student who fails to attain an overall GPA of 1.8 at the end of academic year (excluding
the final year) shall be discontinued from studies.
18 Any student who has failed a core course and does not qualify for a supplementary
examination shall be discontinued.
19 A student not in the final year who obtains a D or an E average in all the core courses
shall be discontinued.
20 All courses offered in the first and second year shall be compulsory in BSc AEM.
Supplementary Examination will be held once each year prior to the commencement of
the subsequent academic year, for the core courses examined during the previous session.
Any student who has qualified to continue with his/her studies under regulation No. 17
must sit for a supplementary examination in any core courses in which he/she has failed
(i.e. scored a D or E) in the examination. The highest grade awarded shall be the minimum
passing grade (i.e. C).
21 With the approval of the College Board and Senate, certain courses may be designated as
courses where coursework supplementation will not be permitted. When the coursework
assessment in such a course is failed, the entire course must be repeated.
22 If after taking supplementary examinations a student fails to obtain a C average at 2.0 or
better in all the core courses, he/she shall be discontinued from studies.
23 A grade scored in the supplementary examination shall constitute the final grade in the
course regardless of the score in the original examination.
24 A student who has qualified to continue with his/her studies (under Regulations 22 and
23 above) must repeat any core course in which he/she has failed even if he/she drops the
subject to which the course belongs.
25 A student who fails a supplementary examination in a core course in which he/she has
enrolled twice within the prescribed time shall be discontinued.

exceptional circumstances, normally only when those credits are needed to complete a
degree programme.
28 A special examination in a course to be regarded as constituting a first sitting shall be
given to students who for satisfactory reasons were allowed by the Principal not to take
the regular examination.
29 Normally, special examinations will be given at the time of supplementary examinations.
30 A student who is required to sit for a special examination or who, for satisfactory reasons,
has not completed an important portion of his/her course work, shall be awarded an ‘I’
(‘Incomplete’) grade.
31 A student who has been awarded an ‘I’ grade during any academic year is required to
clear the grade during the time of supplementary examinations for that academic year.
Except with the approval of the College Board, any ‘I’ grade not cleared at the time of the
supplementary examinations automatically becomes an ‘E’ grade.
32 No student will be enrolled in a course for which he/she has not fulfilled the prerequisites.
A course for which a ‘D’ grade or lower is obtained shall not be counted as fulfilling a
prerequisite for any course unless it is a course in the same series taken during the same
session.
33 To be allowed to repeat a course, in which an examination is a part of the assessment, a
student must first sit for supplementary examination in that course.
34 All courses taken by a student shall be entered in the transcript.
35 The maximum time for which a student may remain registered (CoAF) is 5 years for a 3-
year programme and 6 years for a 4-year programme. Any student who is required to
repeat/complete certain courses in order to qualify for the award of a degree shall be
deemed to have failed the programme at the end of the maximum period if any such
courses have not been passed.

Practical Training
CoAF runs an eight-week practical training programme in which students engage in practical
activities related to their fields of study. Normally, these activities are held in various institutions
outside the University. The 3-year programmes (BSc BST, BSc ASF) have two practical
trainings, one coming immediately after the first year and the other immediately after the second
year. The 3-year programme (BSc ANEB) has one practical training at the end of the second
year. The 4-year programmes (BSc FST and BSc AEM) have three practical trainings, one
coming immediately after the second semester in first year, the second immediately after the
second semester in second year and the third immediately after the second semester of the third
year. The PT programme seeks to:
(i) expose students to the various research and/or production activities being carried out in
different parts of the country;
(ii) enable the students to apply their knowledge in practice;
(iii) ensure that, on leaving the University, graduates have acquired some appropriate work
experience;
(iv) establish and maintain contact between prospective employers and the University in order
to ensure that students are given the appropriate skills and knowledge for the jobs they
are likely to be called upon to perform after graduation; and
(v) enable prospective employers and employees to become acquainted with one another in
the working situation.

governing Practical Training in the College of Engineering and Technology which
are found in the latest UDSM Prospectus.
5 In order to pass, a student must obtain at least three passes out of four, one of which must
be in his/her final report. The student’s daily logbook and final report will be assessed by
his/her University supervisor. In borderline cases, these items may be used for re-
assessment.

be undertaken by the College’s Practical Training Committee, which will make
recommendations to the Board of Examiners.
5.2 A student who fails PT will be required to go through and pass a supplementary training
period, which will be arranged for him/her in June-September of the subsequent year after
completion of University Examinations and will get a maximum of C grade.
5.3 A student who fails in a supplementary PT within the prescribed period shall be
discontinued forthwith.
5.4 Students who do not go to places allocated to them for practical training without satisfactory
reasons will be deemed to have failed their practical training, and will as a result be
discontinued from the University.
5.5 Students who go to the allocated PT places but refuse to follow training programme will
be deemed to have absconded and consequently shall be discontinued.
6 Each practical training shall be treated as a course of the succeeding academic year.
7 Practical training reports will be handed in for assessment before the end of the second
week of the first semester.
8 Internal assessment shall be completed before the end of the first semester.

C: 40 - 49 %
D: 35 - 39 %
F: 0 - 34 %

Course grade will be based on an end of course examination (University Examination) and a
coursework assessment. The former (UE) shall constitute 60% of the total course assessment
whereas the latter (course assessment) shall constitute 40%, normally split as follows: 20%
from tests and other assignments, 10% from seminar presentation and another 10% from
attendance and participation.

For purposes of degree computation, these grades shall have the values of:

A = 5
B+ = 4
B = 3
C = 2
D = 1
F = 0

The pass mark in each of the course taken shall be “C”. The mark for “absolute fail” shall be
“F”.

(i) Courses shall be weighted by multiplying the final grade of a given course by the number
of its course credits.

(ii) Course grades multiplied by the appropriate credits weighting will be accumulated over

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 153

the whole period of study and will form the basis for the assessment of the degree.

(iii) The degree classification shall be based on the best 360 credits from the courses permitted
under the degree programme.

(iv) The final Bachelor of Arts degree shall be graded as first class, upper second class, lower
second class and pass as follows:

First Class 4.4 – 5.0

Upper Second 3.5 – 4.3
Lower Second 2.7 – 3.4
Pass 2.0 – 2.6

In each case, the average point shall be calculated on the basis of truncation after the first
decimal point (e.g. 4.39 shall be taken as 4.3)

A student failing a course in any year shall be required to supplement provided the overall
GPA is not less than 1.8. Supplementary examination shall be marked out of 60% and the
coursework marks (out of 40%) shall be added to the supplementary marks to give the student
a “C”, “D”, or “F” grade. That means a course that has been supplemented shall be awarded a
maximum of “C” grade.

Provided the overall GPA after supplementary examination is 2.0 or above, a student who fails
supplementary examinations will be allowed to carry over flexibly into the subsequent
academic years such number of failed courses as are requisite for the fulfilment of the
requirement of passing a total minimum number of course credits for the programme in
compliance with General Regulation 2 above.

(i) A carried-over course must be taken in full, including all the coursework and it shall be
assessed like a supplementary course with a grade of "C”, “D”, or “F”.

(ii) The carried-over course or courses must be cleared within the maximum allowable
registration period, namely five years.

Special examinations given at the time of supplementary examinations will be treated as first
sitting and graded as such.

A student who for satisfactory reasons has not completed an important portion of his/her
coursework shall be awarded an “I” (“Incomplete”) grade.

(i) A student who has been awarded an “I” grade is required to clear the grade during the
time of supplementary examinations for that academic year. Except with the approval of
the College Board, any “I” grade not cleared at the time of the supplementary
examinations will automatically become “F”.

(ii) A student who has obtained an “F” grade due to “I” will be required to carry over the
relevant course and shall be treated like any other carried-over course as per regulation
2.1 above.

A student who obtains less than 16 marks in his/her coursework grade will be deemed to have

154 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

failed the coursework, and will be barred from taking the examination in that course.

(i) A student who is so barred will be required to carry over the course, other regulations
permitting.

(ii) A student shall be discontinued from studies at the University on academic grounds if
either he/she attains an overall GPA of less than 1.8 outright (during first sitting), or
he/she obtains a GPA of less than 2.0 after sitting for supplementary examinations.

Students must clear all courses within 5 years for 3-year programme. Any student who has
failed to clear any course at the end of the maximum period shall be deemed to have failed the
programme and will not be awarded a degree.

CoHU Practical Training (AS 299 or HI 299)

The College of Humanities organizes a practical training programme for all second year
students except those who are taking BA (Archaeology), BA (Heritage Management), BA
(Archaeology and Geography), BA (Archaeology and History) and BA(Education). The
programme starts after the end of the second semester of the second year and lasts for eight
weeks. It is administered by the office of the Principal, CoHU.

Objectives of Practical Training

The main objective of the training is to enable students to acquire work experience related to
their studies in different working places in the country.

The specific objectives of the practical programme are:

a. To enable students apply or learn the practical applications of the theory they learn
at the University in solving real-life problems.
b. To minimize over-emphasis on theory and thus give some weight to practical work
experience.
c. To give students ample opportunity to acquire appropriate work experience to
complement academic training so that they will be able to serve their communities
better after graduation.
d. To allow institutions and users of our end products assess the quality and relevance
of our graduates and guide the College on how best to improve our pedagogy.
e. To establish and maintain close contacts between employers and the College and
between the College and the ministry responsible for offering particular knowledge
and experience.

Assessment Procedures for Practical Training (AS 299)

Assessment of Practical Training is based on the following distribution of marks (Table 3):

Table 3: Practical Training (AS 299) Assessments

Training officer’s assessment 10%
Student’s logbook 20%
Supervisor’s report 10%
Written report 60%
100%
Note that students in BA (Diplomatic and Military History) and BA (History, Cultural
Heritage Management and Tourism) must be assessed/supervised by UDSM historians.

The marks are used to give grades to the Practical Training, from A to E as per standard
allocation. This grade has no credit but a student must pass the course (AS 299 or HI 299) in
order to graduate.

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 195

BACHELOR OF ARTS WITH EDUCATION
1. Students taking BA (Education) are required to take two Teaching Subjects (content)
offered by either the College of Humanities, the College of Social Sciences or the Institute
of Kiswahili Studies (for Kiswahili courses) and Education courses offered by the School
of Education. A student must pick at least one of the two subjects – Teaching Subject #1
and Teaching Subject #2 - from the College.

The departments which offer courses to BA (Education) students are:

Creative Arts (CoHU)

Foreign Languages and Linguistics (CoHU),
History (CoHU),
Literature (CoHU),
Geography (CoSS),
Economics (CoSS),
Political Science and Public Administration (CoSS), as well as the
Institute of Kiswahili Studies (IKS).

2. Compulsory University/College-wide courses

For BA (Education) students the following are compulsory/college-wide courses:
DS 112 Development Perspectives I 12 credits
DS 113 Development Perspectives II 12 credits
CL 106 Communication Skills 12 credits
BA (Education) students are exempted from all other college-wide courses taken by
CoHU students.

3. The School of Education offers two teaching method courses: CT 106 for those taking
language subjects such as English, French or Kiswahili and CT 107 for those taking non-
language subjects such as History, Creative Arts, Geography, Political Science and Public
Administration or Economics.

4. The regulation that the number of credits per semester should lie between 60 and 72 per
semester has to be adhered to. However, given the requirement to take college/university
wide core courses and given that the School of Education offers for 2nd Year Semester I
two or three (24 or 36 credits) compulsory courses, students are compelled to taking 72
credits per semester.

4.1 Following item No. 3 above, three scenarios are described, depending on the two
Teaching Subjects combinations which a student may decide to take.
Language BA (Education): Students choose teaching subjects 1 and 2 from language
subjects. For the time being, these include English, French and Kiswahili.
Non-language BA (Education): Students choose teaching subjects 1 and 2 from non-
language subjects such as History, Geography, Creative Arts, Political Science and Public
Administration or Economics.

Language + Non-language BA (Education) Students choose one language subject and one non-
language subject. For instance, English and History; or French and Geography.

4.2 It is particularly important to take note of the implications of the choice a student makes
according to 4.1 above. During Second Year-Semester I:

196 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

Language BA (Education), i.e. students will take CT 106 in addition to EP 101 (24 credits).

Non-Language) BA (Education) students: Students will take CT 107 in addition to EP 101 (24
credits).

Students who combine language and non-language subjects must take both CT 106 and CT
107, in addition to EP 101 (36 credits).

Tables 6a guides the counting of credits and registration of courses for students who take two
Languages as two Teaching Subjects (have to take CT 106 and EP 101) and those students who
decide to take two non-language subjects as teaching subjects (taking CT 107 and EP 101)
during Second Year-Semester I.

First Year Semester I: limit is 72 credits.

**First Year Semester II: Given the need to take DS 112, CL 106 and CT100 (accounting for
36 credits), students are needed to take fewer credits in one of the content courses. That is,
students will take two courses from one Teaching Subject and one course from the other, to get
36 credits which, when added to the 62 credits sum up to 72 credits.

**Second Year – Semester I: Given that students who combine language and non-language
subjects must take CT 106, CT 107 and EP 101, they need, during second year, semester I, to
take 36 credits instead of 48 from the content subjects. That is, students will take two courses
from one Teaching Subject and one course from the other, to get 36 credits which, when added
to the 36 credits sum up to 72 credits.

5. Teaching Practice
All BA (Education) students must register for two Teaching Practice ‘practical courses’ (TP)
administered by the School of Education.
Teaching Practice 1 (CT 101) during the long vacation after Semester II of 1st year (core, 12
credits)

Teaching Practice II (CT 202) during the long vacation after Semester II of 2nd year (core, 12
credits)

198 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

Note: credits of these ‘practical courses’ are not counted in the 60-72 credits/semester bracket
as they are offered outside the two class-room based semesters. Note that no one can graduate
without passing both CT 101 and CT 202.

The course details are as follows:

COLLEGE OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES
(CoICT)

INTRODUCTION
The College of Information and Communication Technologies (CoICT) was established on 27th
January, 2011. The establishment of CoICT was the University response to address the increasing
demand for ICT experts in the country by strengthening its teaching, research and public service
in the ICT-related disciplines through a more efficient utilization of the available human and
physical resources. The vision of the College is to become a leading center of excellence
in training, research and consultancy in ICT at national and international levels. The College
comprises the following units:
(i) Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)
(ii) Department of Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering (ETE)
(iii) Centre for Virtual Learning (CVL)
(iv) University of Dar es Salaam ICT Incubator (UDICTI)

The College offers the following undergraduate programmes:

(i) Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSc Comp. Sci.) (3 years)
(ii) Bachelor of Science with Computer Science (BScwith Comp. Sci.) (3 years) with the
following combinations:
a. Computer Science with Mathematics;
b. Computer Science with Physics and
c. Computer Science with Statistics
(iii) Bachelor of Science in Business Information Technology (BScBIT) (3 years)
(iv) Bachelor of Science in Electronics Science and Communication (BSc ES) (3 years)
(v) Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering and Information Technology (BSc CIT)
(4years)
(vi) Bachelor of Science in Telecommunications Engineering (BSc Telecoms) (4 years)

In addition, the college offers the following non-degree programmes:

(vii) Diploma in Computer Science
(viii) Certificate in Computer Science

Regulations Governing the Award of a First Degree

The College of Information and Communication Technologies (CoICT) operates a semester
system of studies. The College offers 3-year and 4-year degree programmes. Each of its disciplines
offers a variety of courses, including core courses, which are compulsory to students majoring
inthe subjects and Elective courses. Each course is given a credit weighting according to the
timedevoted to it on the timetable. One (1) credit is equivalent to ten (10) contact hours. Fifteen
two-hour lectures or 15 lectures and 15 one-hour practical classes constitute eight (8) credits.
Thus,for example, a course consisting of 15 two-hour lectures and 15 one-hour practical classes
is aneight-credit course. Seminars and discussion groups are not counted in the weighting unless
theymake up more than one third of the total teaching hours in a course.

courses in order to qualify for the award of a degree shall be deemed to have failed the programme
at the end of the maximum period if any of such courses have not been passed.
26. To be allowed to carry over a course in which an examination is part of the assessment, a student
must first sit for supplementary examination in that course.
27. Final Year Projects will be assessed and the results will contribute to the final year GPA, as
well as final GPA for degree classification.
28. Assessment of the Final Year Projects shall be based on a written Project Report and Oral

Diploma in Computer Science Programme

Duration of the Diploma Programme
The Diploma programme is designed for two years of which there will be four teaching
[Link] semester has fifteen teaching weeks, as per University regulations. Since
the Diploma programme is being proposed to run both as regular and evening programme,
the followinganalysis will give the number of semester/weeks, which the evening program
is supposed tocover.

Under semester system, there are fifteen teaching weeks, two weeks for examinations, and three
weeks for holidays in the first semester.

Full-Time Diploma Students

On average, total number of lecture hours required for 12 courses is 16 per week. The practical
hours required for seven courses which have practicals are 21 hours (3 hours per week per course)
per week. On the average, a full time student requires (16 + 21) / 5= 7.4 hours/day.

226 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

Part-Time Diploma Students Start time: 4:00 pm to 8: 00 pm Total time: 4hrs/day
Week days (4x5): 20 hours
Saturdays: 8:00 am 1:00 pm = 5 hours Total time per week: 25 hours/week
Full time students require 37 hours/week; this implies that, part-time students require extra
12hours per week to accomplish the programme. For 30 weeks they will require 12 x 30 =
360 hours.
Number of weeks required: 360/25 = 14.4 weeks.
Thus, for the part-time students, they will require five semesters to accomplish the Diploma
Programme.

College Examination Regulations

15 Each course will be assessed at the time of its completion and a grade awarded. The
grade will be based on an end of course examination and a coursework assessment. The
coursework assessment shall normally constitute 40% of the total course assessment.
Coursework assessment, may however, with the approval of Senate, constitute up to
100% of the total course assessment provided that where it exceeds 40% the assignments
on which it is based shall be available for scrutiny by the External Examiner.

16 Monitoring of the student’s progress in each course will be based on the following:
16.1 Grade to marks (%) correspondence:
A = 70%-100%; B+ = 60%-69%; B = 50%-59%;
C = 40%-49%; D = 35%-39%; E = 0%-34%

16.2 Grade to points correspondence:

A = 5 points B+ = 4 points B = 3 points
C = 2 points D = 1 points E = 0 points

16.3 Course grade multiplied by the appropriate credit weighting will be

accumulated over the whole period of study and will form the basis for the assessment
of the degree.
17 An average grade for each major subject shall be worked out by adding together, by
means of weighted points, all the grades of the core course in that subject. The following
points to grade correspondence shall apply in monitoring the student’s progress in each
major subject:
4.4-5.0 = A
3.5-4.3 = B+
2.7-3.4 = B
2.0-2.6 = C
1.0-1.9 = D
0.0-0.9 = E
18 A student who has passed courses totalling more than 360 credits in a three-year
programme, or 480 credits in a four- year programme shall have one or more elective
courses excluded from the assessment in the degree classification. The assessment shall
in this case exclude those elective courses in which the student had the worst

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 245

performance. However, for BScEd programme the minimum number of credits to be
considered shall be 388.
18.1 The average score for the degree will be computed in the same way as for the
average score for a major subject. The degree classification shall be based on
the best 360 or 480 provided that regulations Nos. 1 to 9 above are fulfilled. In
the case of BScEd programme, the degree classification shall be based on the
best 388. The classification shall be as follows:
First Class – 4.4 – 5.0
Upper Second 3.5 – 4.3
Lower Second 2.7 – 3.4
Pass 2.0 – 2.6
19 To be allowed to continue with any degree programme in the College of Science, a
student must pass all the prescribed core courses in each of the major Science subjects
and attain an overall GPA of 2.0 or above.
19.1 A student not in his/her final year of study who obtains a C average in all the
courses including all core courses in one major Science subject and a D average
of 1.5 or above in the minimum required courses of the second major Science
subject, and having an overall GPA of 1.8 or above, shall be allowed to sit for
supplementary examinations. For students taking BScEd the two major
subjects will be Science and Education i.e. the science major subject will
comprise prescribed courses from two teaching disciplines/subjects. A student
taking a Science subject as a double major must score an overall GPA of at
least 1.8 in all core courses in that subject to qualify for supplementary
examinations.
19.2 Any student who has failed a core course and does not qualify for a
supplementary examination shall be discontinued.
19.3 A student not in the final year who obtains a D average of less than 1.8 in all
the core courses of any two major subjects or an E average in all the core
courses of any major subject shall be discontinued.
20 Supplementary Examinations will be held once each year prior to the commencement of
the subsequent academic year, for the core courses examined during the previous
session. Any student, who has qualified to continue with his studies under regulation
No. 19.1, must sit for a supplementary examination in any core courses in which he/ she
has failed (i.e. scored a D or E) in the examination. The highest grade awarded shall be
the minimum passing grade (i.e. C).
21 With the approval of the College Board and Senate, certain courses may be designated
as courses where coursework supplementation will not be permitted. When the
coursework assessment in such a course is failed, the entire course must be repeated.
22 If after taking supplementary examinations a student fails to obtain a C average at 2.0 or
better in all the core courses in two of the Science subjects that he/she will be majoring
in, he/she shall be discontinued from studies.
23 A grade scored in the supplementary examination shall constitute the final grade in that
course regardless of the score in the original examination.

246 Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021

24 A student who has qualified to continue with his/her studies (under Regulations 21 and
22 above) must repeat any core course in which he/she has failed even if he/she drops
the subject to which the course belongs.
24.1 A student who fails a supplementary examination in a core course in which
he/she has enrolled twice shall be discontinued.
24.2 A student who has failed a practical course, which cannot be supplemented,
shall be allowed to proceed to the next year of study provided his/her GPA in
that major subject is 1.8 or higher.
25 Supplementary work in or repetition of elective courses will only be allowed in
exceptional circumstances, normally only when those units are needed to complete a
degree programme.
26 A special examination in a course to be regarded as constituting a first sitting shall be
given to students who for satisfactory reasons were allowed by the Principal not to take
the regular examination.
26.1 Normally, special examinations will be given at the time of supplementary
examinations
26.2 A student who is required to sit for a special examination or who, for
satisfactory reasons, has not completed an important portion of his/her course
work, shall be awarded an “I” (“Incomplete”) Grade
26.3 A student who has been awarded an “I” grade during any academic year is
required to clear the grade during the time of supplementary examinations for
that academic year. Except with the approval of the College Board, any “I”
grade not cleared at the time of the supplementary examinations automatically
becomes an “E” grade.
27 No student will be enrolled in a course for which he/she has not fulfilled the
prerequisites. A course for which a “D” grade or lower is obtained shall not be counted
as fulfilling a prerequisite for any course unless it is a course in the same series taken
during the same session
28 To be allowed to repeat a course, in which an examination is a part of the assessment, a
student must first sit for supplementary examination in that course
29 The maximum time for which a student may remain registered in the College of Science
is 5 years for a 3-year programme and 6 years for a 4-year programme. Any student who
is required to repeat/complete certain courses in order to qualify for the award of a
degree shall be deemed to have failed the programme at the end of the maximum period
if any of such courses have not been passed.

Practical Training
CoNAS runs a practical training programme in which students enrolled in the BScBotSc,
BScGeo, BScGeo, BScPGeo, BScMolBioBTech, BScChem, BScWSc, BScMicr, BScPChem,
BScMet, BScActSc BScMathStat and BScAppZoo courses engage in practical activities related
to their fields of study. Normally these activities are held in various Institutions outside the
University. The programme may have two parts: one coming immediately after the First Year
and the other immediately after the Second-Year. The programme seeks:
(i) To expose students to the various research and/or production activities being carried

3 A student in his/her last but one year of study who fails practical training will be required
to go through and pass a supplementary training period, which will be arranged for
him/her in June-August of the subsequent year after completion of University
Examinations. A first year student who fails practical training will be required to go
through and pass a supplementary training period, which will be arranged during the 6
weeks of the long vacation of the subsequent year.
4 Students who do not go to places allocated to them for practical training without
satisfactory reasons will be deemed to have failed their practical training, and will as a
result be discontinued from the University.
5 Students who go to the allocated PT places but refuse to follow the training programme
will be deemed to have absconded and consequently shall be discontinued from studies.

Bachelor of Arts in Education

1. Students taking BAEd are required to take two Teaching Subjects (content) offered by
theCollege of Social Sciences and Education courses offered by the School of Education.
Possible BAED combinations are:
(i) Geography and Economics
(ii) Geography and Political Science
(iii) Geography and Kiswahili
(iv) Political Science and Public Administration and Kiswahili
(v) History and Political Science and Public Administration
(vi) Economics and Accountancy

1. Compulsory University/College-wide courses

For BAEd students the following are compulsory/college-wide
courses: DS112 Development Perspectives I 12 credits
DS113 Development Perspectives II 12 credits
CL106 Communications Skills 12 credits

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 319

BAEd students are exempted from all other college-wide courses taken by CoSS students.

2. The School of Education offers two teaching method courses: CT 106 for those
takinglanguage subjects such as English, French or Kiswahili and CT 107 for those taking
non-language subjects such as Geography, Political Science and Public
Administration,Economics and Accountancy.

3. The regulation that the number of credits per semester should lie between 60 and 72 has
tobe adhered to. However, given the requirement to take college/university wide core
coursesand given that the School of Education offers for 2nd Year Semester I two or three
(24 or 36credits) compulsory courses, students are compelled to taking 72credits per
semester.

4.1 Following item No. 3 above, three scenarios are described, depending on the two
TeachingSubjects combinations which a student may decide to take.
(i) Language BAEd: Students choose teaching subjects 1 and 2 from language subjects. For
thetime being, these include Kiswahili.
(ii) Non-language BAEd: Students choose teaching subjects 1 and 2 from non-language
subjectssuch as Geography, Political Science and Public Administration or Economics.
(iii) Language + Non-language BAEd Students choose one language subject and one
non-language subject for instance Kiswahili and Geography.
N.B. Students taking teaching subjects offered by CoSS e.g. Geography and Economics will
beadministratively under CoSS. Those taking subjects offered by CoHU will be under
CoHU and those combining courses from CoHu and CoSS will be under CoHU.

4.2 It is particularly important to take note of the implications of the choice a student
makesaccording to 4.1 above.
During Second Year-Semester I:
(i) Language BAEd, i.e. students will take CT 106 in addition to EP 101 (24 credits)
(ii) Non-Language) BAEd students: Students will take CT 107 in addition to EP 101 (24 credits)
(iii) Students who combine language and non-language subjects must take both CT 106 and
CT107, in addition to EP 101 (36 credits)

Table 1a guides the counting of credits and registration of courses for students who take
twoLanguage courses as two Teaching Subjects (have to take CT 106 and EP 101) and those
studentswho decide to take two non-language subjects as teaching subjects (taking CT 107
and EP 101)during Second Year-Semester I.

First Year Semester I: limit is 68 credits, because DS 112 has 8 credits.

**First Year Semester II: Given the need to take DS 113, CL 106 and CT100 (accounting
for32 credits), Students are needed to take fewer credits in one of the content courses.
That is,students will take two courses from one Teaching Subject and one course from
the other, toget 36 credits which, when added to the 32 credits sum up to 68 credits.
**Second Year – Semester I: Given that students who combine language and non-
languagesubjects must take CT 106, CT 107 and EP 101, they need, during second year,
semester I, totake 36 credits instead of 48 credits from the content subjects.
That is, students will take two courses from one Teaching Subject and one course from
theother, to get 36 credits which, when added to the 36 credits sum up to 72 credits.

4. Teaching Practice

administered by the School of Education.
(i) Teaching Practice 1 (CT 101) during the long vacation after Semester II of 1st year

collection, data analysis, report writing and dissemination of findings. The elective report

Undergraduate Prospectus - 2020/2021 377

will be marked and the marks will contribute towards the grade of the Community
Medicine rotation. No student will be allowed to graduate if he/she has not completed all
field works and includingproviding reports.

2.1.4. Calculation of Grade Point Average (GPA)

This is obtained by dividing the sum of the product of grade point (GP) and credit (C) for each
course by the sum of the credits (C) from each of the courses offered during the audit year. For
example:

Course Credit (C) Score Grade Point (GP) GPxC

Anatomy AN 100 13.8 60 2.713 37.4394
Biochemistry BC 100 10.7 70 3.5 37.45
Physiology PH 100 9.2 55 2.352 21.6384
Behavioral Sciences BS 100 10.4 72 3.54 36.816
DS 100 4.6 74 3.58 16.468
Total 48�7 149�8118

GPA = ∑(GPxC) ÷∑C = 149.8118 ÷48.7 =3.07 which is truncated to 3.0 (note that there is
no rounding off when truncating)

with the University of Dar es Salaam School of Law administration office during the
orientation week.

2. Conduct of Examinations
(i) A candidate must attend a minimum of 75% of the lectures and seminars (where
offered) to be eligible to sit for the end of semester written examination in the course
otherwise the Dean retains the power to bar any candidate’s access to examination if
he/she is not satisfied that the candidate qualifies to sit for the examination as required
by regulations, either by reason of poor attendance in lectures and seminars or poor

(b) Such a student will be required to carry over the course, subject to other
regulations.
(ii) Examinations for all courses shall normally be administered at the end of the semester.
(iii) Examiners may, where there are compelling reasons, with approval of the Deputy Vice

are given adequate notice of the examination in question.
(iv) Subject to these regulations, a candidate shall do examinations in all courses prescribed
for a particular examination session in the same examination session.
(v) Subject to these regulations, examinations in the University of Dar es Salaam School

the degree programme. The minimum overall GPA shall be calculated in accordance
with the credits weighting of the individual courses. A candidate who does not meet
the above conditions shall be discontinued.
(v) Carrying over failed courses into subsequent years shall imply repeating the failed
courses in the subsequent years by fulfilling all requirements of the course and shall be
assessed with the maximum obtainable grade being “C”.
(vi) Carryover of Elective courses will only be allowed in exceptional circumstances,
normally only when those credits are needed to get the minimum number of credits to
qualify for the degree award.
(vii) All carried over courses shall be cleared within the allowable maximum period of
registration otherwise the student will be discontinued from studies. The maximum
period of registration is five years for a programme that takes three years and six years

of the individual courses.

overall GPA of less than 1.8. A student shall be discontinued from studies if, after
sitting for supplementary examinations, he/she obtains a GPA of less than 2.0

6. Special Examinations
(i) Special examinations given at the time of supplementary examinations will be treated
as first sitting and graded as such;
(ii) A candidate who is required to sit for a special examination or who, for satisfactory
reasons has not completed an important portion of his/her coursework, shall be
awarded a “PEX” (“Postponed Exam”) grade or “I” (“Incomplete”) grade respectively;
(iii) A candidate who has been awarded a “PEX” or “I” grade is required to clear the grade
during the time of supplementary examinations for that academic year. Except with

MKWAWA UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF EDUCATION (MUCE)

INTRODUCTION
The Mkwawa University College of Education (MUCE) is located in the Southern Highlands
of Tanzania in Iringa Municipality, about 13 kilometres from the center. MUCE was established
as a constituent college of the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) on the 1st of September
2005 by upgrading the former Mkwawa High School, in response to the growing demand of
teachers.

Mkwawa High School was first established as an “Ordinary” level secondary school in 1959 and
was called St. George and St. Michael’s School. In 1964 it became a High School, officiated by the
First President of the United Republic of Tanzania, the late Mwalimu Julius K. Nyerere. In 1977
it was converted into a teachers’ training college offering certificate and diploma programmes
in teacher education. In 1992 it was turned back to a High School until March 2005, when it
was upgraded to a constituent college of the University of Dar es Salaam, by order under Section
55(1) of the University of Dar es Salaam Act No. 12 of 1970 and published on 22nd July 2005
on Government Notice No. 2003.

MUCE consists of three Faculties, i.e., Faculty of Education (FoED), Faculty of Humanities and
Social Sciences (FoHSS), and Faculty of Science (FoSC). Candidates admitted into the College
pursue undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes in Science and Arts.

UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMMES OFFERED

1. The minimum number of students required for any particular undergraduate degree
programme to run shall be ten. Departments wishing to run programmes with less than
ten students shall first obtain special permission from the Deputy Vice-Chancellor
(Academic). The set minimum number of students is subject to annual reviews by the
Senate.
2. Subject to paragraph one (1) above the undergraduate degree programmes offered by
the University of Dar es Salaam in its various academic units are:

Faculty of Education (FoED)
