    Rusangu University GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN PUBLISHED BY SCHOOL OF POSTGRADUATE STUDIES, PROFESSIONAL GROWTH & RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT 2017 — 2021 1 FOREWORD A bulletin is an authoritative source of information for an outsider who desires to know more about an institution and its programmes. It is a reference document, which students and staff alike must consult in order to be properly informed on a particular programme. Ideally, therefore, a bulletin should contain up-to-date information on the curriculum and the enabling regulations. This means that a bulletin should be revised regularly to take care of recent advances in knowledge in the various disciplines and periodic changes in regulations. In this regard, I am pleased to note that the leadership of the School of Graduate Studies, Professional Growth and Research Development has come up with an academic structure guiding our Postgraduate Studies Programmes. The production of this current edition of the Graduate Studies Bulletin, is evident enough to show that the School has endeavored to successfully execute its mandate in furtherance of its goals. With the publication of this bulletin, postgraduate students and faculty no longer have any ground to claim ignorance of the regulations and curricula of their respective programmes. This is more so as the regulations, curricula, and guidelines are now in one single volume. The comprehensive nature of the publication will no doubt also facilitate the work of Postgraduate Studies, Professional Growth and Research Development Committee and other University organs, which are charged with formulation, and or execution of policies and regulations on postgraduate studies. The School will therefore continue to review this bulletin for an improved version of the next edition.
