Background of University of Dar Es Salaam | UDSM

The University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) is the most prominent public university in Tanzania. It is situated 13 kilometers west of Dar es Salaam, occupying 1,625 acres on a hill known as Mlimani in Kiswahili. The University of Dar es Salaam (UCD) was created on October 25, 1961 as the first university in Tanzania.

The University of East Africa (UEA) was established in 1963 as a result of the merger of Makerere University College in Uganda and Nairobi University College in Kenya.

It was temporarily housed in the premises of the Tanganyika African National Union (TANU) in Lumumba Street, Dar es Salaam, from its founding to 1964, when it was relocated to the current location on the hill. The Faculty of Law had only 13 students, among whom was one woman, Julie Manning. UDSM became a full-fledged university on 1^st July 1970 through Act No. 12 of 1970

The idea of University of Dar es Salaam

The idea of Dar es Salaam University was first conceived in the 1958 Annual General Meeting of the Tanganyikan National Union. Mr. Amos Kesenge, the then General Secretary, suggested that the people of Tanganyika were thirsting and hungering for education.

He stated that the key to the country’s development was educating the people. Everyone should contribute to the university in kind and cash, he said. The University was created in 1955, and everyone contributed to its establishment.

The Tanganyikan African Newspaper Company initiated a football match to raise funds and contributed all the money to the university basket fund.
