The Faculty of Informatics and Technical Education (FoITE) mainly oversees the development and review of all academic programmes to ensure the efficient provision of quality education in ICT, Computing, Humanities, Social Sciences and Technical Education academic programmes. At our faculty, we are dedicated to nurturing an environment that encourages innovation, critical thinking, and excellence in informatics, mathematics and technical education. Through our diverse programmes, research and consultancy initiatives, we aim to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in today's dynamic world. FoITE is privileged with lecturers who are highly committed to their job. Our students are exposed to a wide range of theoretical and practical perspectives through core, co-curricular, and extracurricular activities. They benefit from high-quality facilities, including a well-equipped library and computer laboratories. Additionally, students attend two Industrial Practical Training sessions, which provide them with valuable hands-on experience in the industry. This makes FoITE one of the learning places in Tanzania and Africa where students are guaranteed to graduate with the knowledge, competence and skills demanded by the current labour market.

 

The Faculty offers both long and short courses. Long courses encompass certificate, diploma, and degree programmes, attracting a total of 1505 students. Short courses offered are Computer Applications and Road Safety, Foreign Languages (Chinese and English), and Language Proficiency Courses.
