Dr. Latifa Hamisi Mbelwa, PhD.

Dean, University of Dar es Salaam Business School
The University of Dar es Salaam Business School (UDBS) prepares graduates for what they will actually practice in the real world – i.e. solving complex problems and offering solutions. UDBS organizes its curricula around real-world business challenges in order to develop creativity and problem-solving capacities in our students. UDBS seeks to produce graduates who are more entrepreneurial and job creators rather than job seekers.

We offer Undergraduate and Postgraduate (Masters and PhD) training in Commerce with concentration options including Accounting, Banking and Finance, Human Resource Management and Tourism Management; Business Administration, International Business and Trade, Logistics and Transport, Tourism Management, Entrepreneurship, etc. Technology has and will continue to play an increasingly important role in our academic programmes. UDBS is committed to integrating ICT in business education in order to prepare students for life in the 21st century.

We also aim to strengthen our collaboration with the Alumni network, to openly share practical business experiences and perspectives. The network maintains business and personal relationships to support each other with new opportunities. Furthermore, we appreciate our links with the industry because of the resulting opportunities in experiential learning and consultancy for students and staff. We believe these partnerships support real-time curriculum adaption to reflect the issues that enterprises are facing and increase employment opportunities.
