1.0 Historical and the Current
Directorate of Higher Education
1.1 Historical Perspective
Immediately after independence in 1961, higher education was a
Section in the Ministry of National Education and Culture. It was
not until 1979 when it became a fully fledged Department and Dr.
Pius Y. Ng’wandu became its first Director. In 1991 the Directorate
of Higher Education became part of the newly established Ministry
of Science, Technology and Higher Education. The Ministries’
name was later changed to be the Ministry of Higher Education,
Science and Technology. Following the restructuring of the
Government Ministries in early February 2008, the Directorate of
Higher Education was transferred back to the Ministry of Education
and Vocational Training to be one of the core Directorates.
1.1 Management Structure of the Directorate of
Higher Education
The Directorate of Higher Education (DHE) is led by the Director.
The Directorate has two Sections and each Section is supposed to be
led by an Assistant Director. Currently, there are four officers
working in each section. The two Sections of the Directorate of
Higher Education are: The Higher Education Management Support
Section (EJM) and the Higher Education Policy Development and
Monitoring Section (EJS). The acronyms EJM and EJS are coined
abbreviations for Kiswahili titles; ‘Elimu ya Juu Menejimenti’ (EJM)
and ‘Elimu ya Juu Sera’ (EJS).

repealed and all Universities and University Colleges were required
to have Charters. These Charters of Incorporation are the ones
which enable Universities to run, manage and administer
University education in Tanzania. Under the Universities Act
No.7, all Universities and University Colleges are supposed to
provide the nation with trained manpower for development and
wellbeing of the nation so as to transform the country from low to
middle income country.
Currently, there are 40 Universities and University Colleges

4.0 Higher Education Study
Opportunities
Study opportunities in higher education are provided either within
the country or outside the country. According to Higher Education
Policy of 1999, higher education is supposed to be cost-shared
between the end beneficiaries and the Government. The policy
encourages students from economically able families to pay for their
education while poor ones apply for loans from the Higher
Education Students Loans Board.
Scholarship opportunities offered to Tanzania by friendly countries,
International Organizations and individuals to study outside the
country are either coordinated by the Directorate of Higher
Education or individual Universities. The DHE coordinates three
types of scholarships:
a. Scholarships under Bilateral Agreements;
b. Commonwealth Scholarships and
c. Students exchange programmes.
Most of the bilateral scholarships are partial scholarships where
tuition fees are paid by the host countries while living and travel
expenses are paid by the beneficiary country. Students under these
scholarships are given loans by HESLB to cover living, travel and
other general expenses.
The Commonwealth Scholarships are funded by the host
Commonwealth member states. These scholarships cover all
training expenses including round trip ticket.
For students under exchange programmes, Tanzania sends to and
receives students from partner countries to study in their
Universities and in our local Universities respectively.
17
4.1 Bilateral Agreement Scholarships
These are study opportunities offered to Tanzania by friendly
countries for both undergraduate and postgraduate studies.
Currently, friendly countries offering scholarships which are
coordinated by DHE include; Algeria, China, Turkey, Pakistan,
Egypt, South Korea, Cuba, Russia, Ukraine, India, Czech Republic,
Indonesia, Macedonia and Poland.
Advertisements to invite applications for these scholarships are
made in newspapers and on the Website of the Ministry of
Education and Vocational Training. Invitations and call for
applications for scholarships tenable in China, Russia, Ukraine,
Pakistan and India are normally received and advertised between
the months of January and March; For scholarships tenable in
Poland, Turkey, Egypt and Cuba, Invitations and calls are made in
March/April of each year while scholarships tenable in Czech
Republic and Algeria are received and processed in June/July. Most
of these scholarships under Bilateral Agreements are for
undergraduate courses except for those tenable in China, Poland,
Turkey, South Korea and Indonesia.
4.2 Commonwealth Scholarships
Commonwealth Scholarships are educational training opportunities
offered by Commonwealth Countries to Member States for the
purpose of providing advanced knowledge, skills, science and
technology necessary for the development of the recipient countries.
Commonwealth Scholarships coordinated by DHE are mainly for
postgraduate studies (Masters and Doctorate Degrees).
Commonwealth Countries that currently offer Scholarships to
Tanzania include the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand,
Malaysia and India. The DHE advertises these scholarships in local
18
newspapers and in the Ministry’s website. Invitations and call for
applications are normally made in September/October for United
Kingdom and Canada Scholarships, July/August for New Zealand
Scholarships, November for Malaysia scholarships and
January/February for scholarships tenable in India.
4.3 Students Exchange Programs
Tanzania has entered into Agreements with some countries to
exchange students both at Undergraduate and Postgraduate levels.
Countries currently under such Agreements include Uganda (under
Inter University Council of East Africa Students exchange
programme), Mozambique (under Tanzania – Mozambique
Students Exchange Program) and China. Under these reciprocal
Agreements, each country is supposed to send its students to study
in the other country’s Universities and receive other country’s
students to study in local Universities. Students under this
arrangement are treated as local students by the host countries.
5.0 Processing and Awarding of
Scholarships
5.1 Processing of Scholarships
As stated above, overseas scholarships are administered and
coordinated by DHE in the Ministry of Education and Vocational
Training. Once advertised, aspiring candidates apply for these
scholarships by attaching all the required documents. Applications
received are sorted and ranked according to their weight or
qualifications. Applications with more academic
weights/qualifications and those in the fields which are considered
to be more relevant to the nation’s development are ranked high.
Nomination of applicants for overseas scholarships is done by Inter-
Ministerial Government Committee called the Sub - Advisory
Committee on Higher Education and Training (SACHET). This
Committee is composed of members from the following Ministries
and Institutions:
a. Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, Tanzania
Mainland;
b. Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, Zanzibar
Revolutionary Government;
c. Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation
d.President’s Office- Public Service Management,
e. The Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar Coordination
Office in DSM;
f. The Tanzania Commission for Universities
g. The Higher Education Students Loans Board.
h.The National Examination Council of Tanzania
20
5.2 Selection and Awarding Criteria
Selection criteria vary depending on the individual country and the
type of the scholarship. Overall, the following are the common
criteria used for selecting and awarding these scholarships:
a. Age:
For Undergraduate scholarships, applicants must not be more than
25 years of age; Master Degree not more than 35 years of age and
for PhDs applicants, not more than 40 years. For Commonwealth
Scholarships in the United Kingdom, a candidate whose certificate
is more than ten years after graduation is disqualified while in other
Commonwealth countries the maximum duration is five years after
graduation of the last degree.
b. Academic qualifications:
Undergraduate applicants must have passed Form V1 Examinations
with passes in Division I or II. Postgraduate applicants must have
passed with at least a GPA of 3.5 at undergraduate level and a B
Grade or GPA of 4.0 for Masters Applicants aspiring for Doctorate
Degrees.
c. Study Language:
Undergraduate applicants selected for studies in a non - English
speaking country or non-Commonwealth countries like Russia,
China, Poland, Turkey, Algeria, South Korea, Cuba and Czech
Republic must study the host country’s language which is
sometimes used as a medium of instruction. Although most of the
Postgraduate programmes are offered in English, students are also
required to study the host language in order to enable them
communicate and socialize easily in the host countries.
21
d. Letters of Recommendations:
Postgraduate applicants must have three letters of
recommendations: (two letters from two Professors: one of whom
should be from the applicant’s latest institution and one letter from
the applicant’s employer). If the Applicant is self-employed, the
third letter should be from a recognized academician.
e. Physical and mental fitness:
All aspiring candidates must be in good health
f. Verifications and award
All names of selected candidates are submitted to the Tanzania
Commission for Universities (TCU) for verification and approval.
Once approved, nominated candidates are normally informed of
their scholarship results using their postal addresses, telephone
numbers and e-mails. The names of selected candidates are
displayed at the Ministry’s notice boards, published in the local
newspapers and put on the Ministry of Education and Vocational
Training website. Nominated candidates fill in special
application/acceptance forms which are remitted to the host
country for placements in host higher education institutions.
Tanzanian Embassies take care of these students the entire period
they are studying in these countries.
6.0 Financing Higher Education in
Tanzania
6.1 The concept of cost-sharing
Funds for higher education normally come from the Government,
Owners of Institutions, Individuals, Development Partners, Private
Organizations, parents and other education Stakeholders. Over
years now, there has been an increasing number of students seeking
higher education but funds to support them have not kept pace with
the increasing demands. To address this problem, the Government
introduced cost sharing policy in 1990’s.
Cost sharing means shifting some of the costs incurred on education
by the Government to other stakeholders and end beneficiaries. Cost
sharing thus, emphasizes on partnership with other education
stakeholders in meeting higher education expenses.
6.2 Historical Background of Cost-sharing
The history of cost sharing in higher education goes back to the
colonial period. Before and immediately after Independence in
1961, all students pursuing higher education had to pay for tuition
fees and other expenses. Students who came from poor families
were offered Government bursaries which they had to pay back after
their graduation. This arrangement continued until 1964 when the
National Service Scheme was introduced.
Between 1964 and 1974 University students were given bursaries
after serving in the National Service for a period of six months
before joining Universities. After completing their studies, students
had guaranteed employment in Government or Public Institutions.
Employed graduates were paid 40% of their salaries and 60% of
their salaries were used to pay back their bursaries.
23
When Musoma Resolution was introduced in 1974, students had to
undergo a one year compulsory National Service and work for two
years before joining higher education. In order to compensate for
the forgone salaries paid to students who were working before
joining Universities, the Government introduced higher education
allowance which was paid to all students. University fees, meals and
accommodation, books and stationery plus field work allowances
were all paid directly to Universities which managed and provided
all the required services to students.
Having noted the increasing public demand for higher education
and a good number of students with good qualifications failing to
continue with higher education, the concept of cost sharing was
proposed in 1988. To implement this policy, the Government
decided that the cost sharing concept should be implemented in
three phases:
6.3 Three phases of cost sharing
a. Phase 1 (1992 -1994)
During Phase I, the following expenses were covered by students:
 Caution money
 Transport costs to and from Institutions
 Application fees
 Examination fee
 Students Union fees
 Medical expenses
b. Phase II (1994 – 2004)
In addition to meeting Phase I expenses, during Phase II, students
were also required to cover the following expenses:-
 Meals
 Accommodation
24
In order to assist students who could not afford to pay for their
meals and accommodation, the Government introduced a loans
scheme where students could borrow money to meet the costs for
meals and accommodation. This loan’s scheme was managed by
then the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology
from 1994 to 2005.
c. Phase III (2005 – to date)
The third phase of cost - sharing came into force in 2005/06 after an
enactment of Act No.9 of 2004 which established the Higher
Education Students Loans Board (HESLB). The main function of
HESLB was to give loans to students and recover loans from
previously loaned students (1994 – 2005).
Under Phase III, items which could be loaned included:
 Books and Stationery
 Special Faculty Requirements
 Field Practical Training expenses
 Research Expenses
 Meals and Accommodation
 Tuition Fees
The impact of cost sharing policy has resulted to increased number
of students from 23,126 (2003/04) to 155,259 (2010/11) in
Universities and University Colleges. About 60% of these students
get loans from the HESLB.
6.4 Presidential Team’s Recommendation on Student
Loans
Early 2011 the President appointed a Team to review the current
students loan scheme. The Team came up with a number of
recommendations. Amongst them included the need to involve
25
other stakeholders in financing or issuing loans to students, review
of loans issuing and recovery criteria.
7.0 Programmes and Projects
7.1 Programmes
Currently the DHE is coordinating the implementation of Higher
Education Development Programme (HEDP) 2010 – 2015. The
Programme is a logical follow up of the ESDP (1997) which started
with Primary Education Development Programme in 2002 and then
Secondary Education Development Programme in 2004.
The Programme aims at contributing towards achieving the goals
stipulated in various national socio-economic development policies
and is divided into three main components namely;
(1) Institutional reforms
(2) Service delivery
(3) Sustainability mechanisms.
HEDP is planned to be implemented in two phases starting with
Phase I where the following priority areas have been identified:
(a)Development and retention of high quality human resources,
(b)Rehabilitation and construction of new infrastructure to
accommodate the increasing number of students;
(c) Availability of adequate teaching and learning materials;
(d)Improvement and application of ICT for teaching, research and
communication;
26
(e)Conduction of demand driven research and outreach activities
which will contribute to national socio-economic development.
Funds to implement projects developed from this programme are
expected to come from the Government budget, Development
Partners and the Private Sector.
7.2 Projects
The DHE is coordinating an IDA support Project named Science
and Technology Higher Education Programme (STHEP) 2008 –
2013. The Project’s long term objective is to enhance Tanzanians
capacity to apply knowledge to economic activity by building and
strengthening its higher education system. The immediate goal is to
increase the quantity and quality of higher education graduates,
with special emphasis on science, technology and education through
an improved learning environment.
The Project has two broad areas of investment: Capacity to deliver
specific degree programmes of high priority; and Institutions and
systems to support higher education generally. Within these two
investments, the Project is being implemented under four
components namely:
a.Component 1A: Investments in Priority Disciplines for economic
Growth: (5 HEIs are participating);
b.Component 1B: Expanded capacity for Teacher Preparation and
for Graduate Studies in education (5 HEIs are participating);
c.Component 2A: Strengthening Key Higher Education Agencies
and Institutions (6 Institutions participating);
27
d.Component 2B: Investment in system wide ICT Development
and libraries (COSTECH, MCST & MoEVT Coordinating this
component).
Most of the planned activities have been undertaken and it is
expected that by the end of the Project, 143 PhDs and 148 MSc.
graduates will have benefited from the project, 21 new buildings will
be in place in 7 HEIs and 12 buildings rehabilitated or expanded in 4
HEIs. Lastly, it is expected that 28 HEIs and Research Institutions
will be networked and be able to share ICT facilities for teaching
research and communication. For more information visit Project

8.0 Challenges and Strategies
8.1 Challenges Facing Higher Education
The higher education in Tanzania is facing a number of challenges.
Amongst them include:
a. Increasing number of students aspiring to enroll in higher
learning institutions due to successful completion and
implementation of Primary Education Development
Programme (PEDP), Secondary School Development
Programme (SEDP) and increased public / social demands
for higher education. Table 1 shows staff and students
enrollment in Universities for the past 6 years both in Public
and Private Institutions.
b.Inadequate funding which do not match with increased
number of students and aged infrastructure which were
meant to accommodate only few students.
c. Inadequate number of teaching and technical staff compared
to the increased number of students and new higher learning
institutions.
d.Too much dependence on Government to finance and support
higher education.
e. The aging and retiring skilled academic staff with most
Universities having no succession plans.
f. Poor working environment, remuneration and retirement
packages which do not attract and retain skilled and
experienced staff.
29
g. Limited number of other sources of financing higher education
students to meet the increasing number of needy students
demanding loans.
h.Inefficient utilization of meager resources due to duplication
and uncoordinated efforts by higher learning institutions.
i. Some few Institutions refusing to enter Central Admission
System in order to minimize multiple admissions which
result in delays in opening of institutions, delays in loans
disbursement and non filling of placements in Universities.
j. Increasing number of fake certificates and degree awards in
order to get University Admissions.
k.Low ratio of female and disadvantaged students in higher
learning institutions.
l. More students preferring to study arts and social science
programmes than life science and technological programmes
due to better remunerations after graduations and less stress
when in Universities.
m. Low pass rates for science and technology biased students in
both Secondary schools and Universities.
n.Competitions for students with middle cadre institutions
which are also offering degrees.
o.Lack of National Qualification Framework to oversee,
regulate and control quality higher education.
