UDSM Vice Chancellor launches the Industrial Advisory Board
On 13th April 2023, the UDSM Vice Chancellor, Prof. William Anangisye launched the Industrial Advisory Board (IAB). The formation of IAB is linked to the objectives of the Higher Education for Economic Transformation (HEET) project. The linkage between Higher Education institutions and Industry is not only crucial but also necessary as it enhances teaching that focuses on the labour market, encourages competency-based learning and strengthens collaboration between Higher Education Institutions and stakeholders from the industry. Thus, IAB members always strive to establish good relationship with industries to familiarize themselves with qualities of industries demanded by learners.
