The Tanzania Commission for Universities (TCU) has identified an unregistered university at Kimara suburb.
The
organization, which calls itself Tanzania International University
(TIU), is presently enrolling students for different courses up to
degree level.
According to TCU deputy
executive secretary, Prof Magishi Mgasa, TIU had not been accredited by
his commission, hence it was operating illegally.
TCU, according to laws of the land, is charged with registering and overseeing operations of all higher learning institutions.
Prof
Mgasa noted during a press conference in the city yesterday that
already a number of applicants had registered with the TIU for
certificate, diploma and degree courses.
“We have served the management with a notice ordering it to close the Institution immediately,” he said.
