THE SCHOOL OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCE(SoHSS)

The SoHSS seeks to have an output of graduates who are informed, principled, have critical thinking capabilities, are problem solvers and have integrity to become credible leaders and citizens. The School was established in 2020 out of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences which was established under a drive to Re-Engineer and Re-Brand the then DarTU, which was transformed into the present Dar es Salaam Tumaini University (DarTU) in January 2024. Like other schools, the delivery of education in the SoHSS is guided by the university motto, thus, is “Where Morals, Positive Mindset and Attitudes are Inculcated for Assured Students Learning and Responsible Citizenry”.

The SoHSS is distinctive and innovative: it blends cutting-edge research with innovative teaching and learning. The school emphasize an active learning approach and avails students opportunities to gain real-world experience during their student lives at DarTU. This approach is purposely directed to the “production” of graduates who are market-ready and have skills to either enter and survive in the growing competitive market and/or establish their own footing in the private sector, among others, by generating employment.
