THE BACKGROUND OF JoKUCo
Introduction
The Josiah Kibira University College (JoKUCo) of Tumaini University Makumira is located in Bukoba Rural District 8 km North of Bukoba Mu-
nicipality in the Kagera Region of the United Republic of Tanzania.
JoKUCo is a Christ-centred University College focusing all its pro-
grammes through the guidance of and obedience to the Word of God and
by conducting and promoting higher education, learning, research, through
scientific fact-finding and enquires, to all students and staff without dis-crimination.
The Josiah Kibira University College of Tumaini University Makumira was born out of a decision taken in August 2008 by the Synod of the
North-Western Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania
(ELCT) governed and administered in accordance with the provisions of the constitution establishing it. The question that could be posed is why
should the University College be named after Josiah Kibira?
The late Rt. Rev. Dr. Josiah Kibira1, (1925-1988) was one of the great teachers, educators, religious leaders and one of religious ecumenical per-
sonalities. He served as a teacher during the colonial times but under a
voluntary education agency, becoming also the first African deputy head-master of a mission secondary school from 1955 to 1957; pastor (1960-64)
and eventually he was elected and consecrated as the first African Bishop
of the North-Western Diocese (1964-1985). He was elected to be the pres-
ident of the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) as its sixth president – first from the African continent – in the years 1977 to 1984. He made a remark-
able contribution to the diocesan spirit of offering social services as far as
educational, health and diaconal services are concerned. It is because of his concern to the development of humankind mentally, spiritually and
materially that JoKUCo bears his name.
11 Josiah Kibira was a son of Isaiah Kibira, one of the first founders of the
Protestant Church in the Kagera Region (1890’s). This Protestant Church later
grew into a North-western Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanza-
nia.
xvi
JoKUCo has two faculties, Faculty of Science and Technology and Fac-ulty of Arts and Social Sciences. Through these faculties, the University
College offers various academic programmes leading to the award of cer-
tificates, diplomas, undergraduate and postgraduate diplomas and degrees.
The University College degree and non-degree courses as listed in Chapter
1.1 Courses offered by JoKUCo.
The main goal of JoKUCo is to be a centre of excellence in providing
quality education, not only at university degree level as from 1st degree up
to PhD – level later or in research and consultancy activities only but also through training in short and long-term courses and tailor made pro-
grammes, certificates and diplomas.
JoKUCo also aims at functioning in a sustainable manner both financially, environmentally and in our relationship to the surrounding community.
xvii
THE NAME OF THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE
On 25th November 2005, the Executive Council of the ELCT-NWD for-
mally declared that the University College that was to be opened in the Di-ocese should be called “Josiah Kibira University College of Tumaini Uni-
versity” (JoKUCo)
The late Bishop Dr. Josiah Kibira
The late Bishop Dr. Josiah Kibira was elected and consecrated bishop in 1964 as the first African Bishop of the ELCT-NWD.
The current Bishop in office, Bishop Dr. Abednego Keshomshahara is the Chairman of the Governing Board.

sibility of the ticket owner to pay for any book or Library material
borrowed by a culprit using the lost ticket. 2 In case of a part-time lecturer, the Head of the Department will borrow
the materials on their behalf, thus carrying the responsibility for the
books. 3 Any loss of the borrowing ticket must be reported and a fine of

the Library opens.
5 No Library materials may be taken out of the Library unless they have been officially issued to the user.
6 At the end of each semester, all Library users are required to settle any
overdue loans. Failure to do so leads into them being marked as
defaulters and they may therefore forfeit the privilege of using the Library and borrowing materials thereof.
7 Any user holding overdue library materials will not be registered at
the library until the materials owed by the library are returned and the eventual overdue penalty has been paid.
8 In the case of finalist students, examination, statement of results, tran-

into denial to access the Library accompanied with a warning letter copied to the Dean, Director or Head of Department.
5.3 Students’ Organisation
Tumaini University Makumira Students Organization (TUMASO-
JoKUCo) functions according to its own Constitution. Its activities are
funded by the Student Organization’s Fee collected by the College and de-posited onto the TUMASO-JoKUCo account.
5.4 Physical, intellectual and spiritual health
There are out-door and in-door games and playgrounds for football, bas-
ketball, volleyball and indoor games. Thus, the students are able to keep themselves in good physical condition.

6 REGULATIONS GOVERNING LEARNING AND TRAINING
6.1 Definition of Credit
6.1.1 Curricula Prepared According to the University Qualifica-
tions Framework Requirements
1 The Concept of Credit Credit is a measurement unit for ‘notional’ or ‘average learning’ time
that represents the estimated time needed for a learner to achieve re-
quired specific learning outcomes. The notional learning time includes all the activities which the learner is expected to undertake in order to
achieve the learning outcomes.
A credit in the University Qualifications Framework (UQF) equates to learning outcomes achievable in 10 hours of learning time determined
on the basis of a learner with an average learning speed. That is, a
credit equals 10 notional hours. According to TCU instructions, the
“old” credits in an existing course will be multiplied by three to arrive at the amount of “new” credits.
2 Learning Activities
These ten hours of work for one Credit may include a combination of some or all of the following (or some other ones) learning activities:
- lectures
- seminars/tutorials
- assignments - independent studies
- practical training
3 A Programme’s Credits Credit accumulation for any Programme is the process of achieving credits
over time and over all courses and other duties to be completed in relation
to the planned programme of study. 4 Students workload in a course
Student’s workload in any course is the planned total of Contact hours
with the Instructor + the planned time for the assignments, independent
27
work and eventual practical or other training. The total workload in any
programme is the sum of course-wise workloads. 5 In average, TCU has set the following target distribution for earning
the Credits(= of the student’s workload) of any programme (note: de-
pending on the nature of the programme, there may be major differ-
ences):
Programme % on
Lec-tures
% on Sem-
inars and Tutorials
% on
As-sign-
ments
% on Inde-
pendent Studies and
Research
% on
Prac-tical
Bachelor 40 20 10 20 10
Diploma 60 10 10 10 10
Certificate n.a.
From Academic Year 2015-2016 onwards the UQF will be applied to all programmes starting with the first year students.
6.1.2 Conventional Curricula
Each credit shall be equivalent to one contact hour per week or two practi-cal/seminar/tutorial hours per week over a semester.
Thus, a course of three credits could have (e.g.) any of the following Learning Modes (rounded up/down average) number lectures and other
learning activities):
Hours of
lectures
per week
Practical/ sem-
inar/tuto-
rial/lab hours
per week

Contact and
Work-load Hrs 3 0 3 9 48
2 2 4 9 64
1 4 5 9 80
0 6 6 9 96
Each semester is 18 weeks long. Lectures/seminar/tutorials will last for 16
weeks and the last two weeks of each semester are reserved for university examinations.
28
All studies initiated in Academic Year 2014-2015 or before follow the
conventional definition of Credit and continue using their respective
Prospectuses.

7.17 GRADING SYSTEM
7.17.1 Grading terminology
The following abbreviations are in use at JoKUCo:
SGPA Semester Grade Point Average is the average of the
weighted grade point results of all compulsory courses taken during any one Semester of studies by the partic-
ular student in question.
AGPA Annual Grade Point Average is the average of the weighted grade point results of all compulsory courses
taken during the any year of study by the particular stu-
dent in question.
FGPA Final Grade Point Average is the average of the weighted grade point results of all compulsory courses
taken during the whole period of studies by the particu-
lar student in question.
7.17.2 Individual Course
Course Assessment shall consist of two parts: continuous assessment and
end of semester university examinations, both of which are compulsory and the
1 Continuous Assessment (CA) will contribute 40 %. The content and
weights of different elements of Continuous Assessment will depend on the courses offered in any particular programme.
48
2 End of semester University Examination (UE) will contribute the re-
maining 60 %. 3 In some programmes or courses, the weights between CA and UE may
differ. If so, it will be specifically mentioned in the programme or
course description.
Thus, unless decided otherwise by the Senate, each course shall be graded
out of a maximum of 100% as follows:
1 Certificates, Diplomas and Undergraduate Course Examinations

7.17.3 Calculation of GPA
The Semester, Annual and Final grade point averages (GPA) are calcu-lated on basis of the Grade Points of all individual Course Grades of Com-
pulsory Courses following the procedure below:
The letter grades of individual compulsory courses will be assigned points as follows:
A B+ B C D E
5 4 3 2 1 0
2 The Grade points of all compulsory courses of a candidate should be
appropriately weighted in terms of Credits:
3 To get the score for each course multiply the points, as in (1) by the
weights (Credits) as in (2). 4 The total score for the degree should be the total score for all counta-
ble courses taken by the candidate for the degree, computed as in (3).
5 The average score for the degree should be computed by dividing the total score in (4) by the total weight (sum of Credits in Compulsory
Courses) obtained under (2):
The sum of weighted grade point results for all compulsory courses taken during all the years of study
Total Number of Credits for all compulsory courses taken in the corre-sponding period
6 Total point scores should be truncated at one decimal place.
This method is used for all GPA calculations, whether for a Semester
Grade Point Average or Annual Grade Point Average or for the Final
Grade Point Average.
The SGPA (as well as Annual and Final GPA where appropriate)will be
recalculated after the Supplementary Examinations.
50
7.17.4 Classification of Final Grade of a Degree
The Final Grade Point Average is the overall performance measure over the duration of the studies for any student in question. Classification of the
degrees means a grading scheme or code used to differentiate between the
various attainments of degree holders and therefore a measure of academic
achievement. The table below applies to all degrees at different UQF lev-els for Final Grade Classification.
In calculating the GPA for final degree awards, every institution should use a five-point system in averaging the final grade. The five-point system
should be classified as follows-
Table 7.18.3: Final Classification of Undergraduate Degree
Awards
Grade Grade Point Range Class
A (5.0 – 4.4) First Class
B+ (4.3 – 3.5) Second Class Upper Division
B (3.4 – 2.7) Second Class Lower Division
C (2.6 – 2.0) Pass
7.17.5 Continuation and Discontinuation of Studies
1 A student passing in all prescribed first and second semester courses shall proceed to the subsequent year of study or graduate.
2 A student who fails in less than 50% of the prescribed courses shall be
allowed to sit for supplementary examinations in the failed courses, to be held, as scheduled, after the end of the Second Semester University
Examinations of that academic year.
3 A student who fails in 50%or more of the prescribed courses in either
semester shall be discontinued from studies in either semester. 4 A student who fails to attain an overall SGPA of 2.0 for either Semes-
ter 1 or Semester 2 shall be discontinued forthwith.
5 A student who scores an E grade in any course shall repeat that course when next offered.
6 A student who scores an AGPA of 2.0 or higher but fails Supplemen-
tary Examinations will be allowed to carry over and proceed to the next year of study. Such student will repeat failed courses during that
academic year and sit for the examinations when they are scheduled.
51
Repeating a course shall include repeating the entire coursework, even
continuous assessment. 7 A student passing Supplementary examinations will be awarded grade
C in each of those courses.

numerical codes, where the two last numbers start with 7, e.g.:
JBED 2075 Vacation Teaching Practice I
JBED 4076 Vacation Teaching Practice II
The Course Letter Codes (above ED / Education) will vary according to
the subject in question.
63
NOTE, that Teaching Practice I / II and other Field Attachment Practical
Training are courses with Credits.
Coding of Research Methods and Research work and Report Writing:
The courses in research methods and writing geared directly towards pro-
ducing the required Research Paper in the third year of the first degree are coded with same series of numerical codes in all Faculties and Pro-
grammes where the second but last number (8) indicates that it is question
of research issues), e.g.:
JBCC**4081 Research Methods
JBCC**6082 Research Project
The Course Letter Codes (**) will vary according to the subject in ques-
tion, e.g. JBEN, Research Methods (in English Language), as the actual
implementation of these courses may differ as between subjects and/or programmes as described in the respective Curriculums.

characterized by the rapid rise of monopoly capital, ethnicity rooted in slav-
ery and immigration and self-sufficiency in natural resources. After WWI
USA emerges as the dominant capitalist power. This course will highlight these issues and processes by way of providing a coherent account of why

JBBI 1001: Introductory Cell Biology and Genetics 9 Credits
Course Aim:
This is a first year course. It introduces the basic cell components (atoms, molecules), structures (nucleic acids, proteins and enzymes), organelles and
processes. It link up the cell processes with the mechanisms of inheritance
as explained by neo-Mendel an approaches in order to enable students un-derstand the mechanisms of transmitting characters in their varied states to
future generations, the core in all Biological systems.
207
JBBI 1002: Introductory Botany 9 Credits

Course Aim:
The course is targeting to give a general understanding of the vertebrate
body, the structure and functions of tissues and organs. The knowledge gained in this course will be useful for teaching, research and as basis for
other Biology courses.
JBBI 3005: Ecology 1 9 Credits
Course Aim:
The course aims to expose students to knowledge on how living things in-
teract with their environment. The course should enlighten students as to how to react and control factors that may lead to the perturbations of the
ecosystems so that they are maintained for a continued life of communities.
JBBI 3006: Invertebrate Zoology 9 Credits

software to demonstrate skills.
JBCS 1002: Fundamentals of Computer Programming 9 Credits
Course Aim:
Programming languages will introduce the student to some basic issues as-
sociated with program design and development. The focus of this course is to establish an appreciation of the work being done by software. The pro-
gramming language is a programmer’s principal interface to the computer.
More than just knowing how to program in a single language, programmers need to understand the different styles of programming promoted by differ-
ent languages. Understanding the variety of programming languages and
the design trade-offs between the different programming paradigms makes it much easier to master new languages quickly.
This knowledge area consists of those skills and concepts that are essential
to programming practice independent of the underlying paradigm. As a re-sult, this area includes units on fundamental programming concepts, basic
data structures, and algorithmic processes. These units, however, by no
means cover the full range of programming knowledge that a computer sci-ence undergraduate must know. Many of the other areas—most notably
Programming Languages (PL) and Software Engineering (SE)—also con-
tain programming-related units that are part of the undergraduate core. In most cases, these units could equally well have been assigned to either Pro-
gramming Fundamentals or the more advanced area.

itance and documentation. In this course, students are taught concepts of OOP theoretically and are taught how to write robust code by small exam-
ples and small to medium-sized programming exercises. The students learn
how to analyse problems and design software solutions using OOP tech-niques and later implement these designs using Java or C++ code. The stu-
dents learn what single inheritance, polymorphism and dynamic binding
mean and how these techniques can be used to write stable, easily extend-
able and maintainable code. Through all this, Java is used as the example OO language.
