Authors’ compilation based on information from university prospectuses of RUCU (2014), SJUT (2014), TEKU (2015), SEKOMU (2014), AMUCTA (2015), and http://www.uob.ac.tz/index.php/2015-03-23-08-45-42/college-of-education
These universities and university colleges offer many other postgraduate degrees but we chose only master’s degrees in education as a representative because they are offered in most of the institutions. Common master degrees in education in these institutions include Master of Arts in Education, Master of Education in Special Education, Master of Education Management and Planning, etc
^aThe institution’s postgraduate prospectus lists 13 academic staff with PhDs but only two of them appear to be employed by TEKU. The rest are employees of other higher learning institutions
^bThere are only two permanent staff with requisite qualifications; the rest are part time staff employed elsewhere in other institutions
^cThere are four listed academic staff with PhDs. However, two of the four staff are employees of the University of Dar es Salaam Mulokozi ( 2012)
