It is worth noting that there can be great variation in the education systems between countries, and Departments should, as always, consider each application on the strength of the references and other supporting materials in addition to the academic qualification. The document has been compiled from a variety of sources including: UK NARIC (National Academic Recognition Information Centre for the United Kingdom) www.naric.org.uk; The International Office; and views from individuals in several Faculties. Please note that this table lists the University’s minimum requirements. Departments and Degree Committees differ in how they regard qualifications, and may therefore require a higher grade or qualification than that specified below. An academic case will be considered with relevant supporting information for applicants who do not meet these guidelines. Comments and views from colleagues on this document are very welcome. Please contact Clare Impey at the Graduate Admissions Office if you wish to comment on or add to any advice – [email protected] . When requesting more information about a specific case, it is helpful if you can send copies of the applicant’s academic transcripts where possible. ****NOTE: Where multiple grading schemes are listed on one transcript, whichever requirement is the highest should be applied.

  • Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming
    Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming Educational level: University | Beneficiaries: Students, faculty, and staff Background Assessments of universities such as Jimma University1 and the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM)2 that found sexual harassment and violence and high attrition of female students played a role in developing gender centers.1 At the University of Western Cape, campus activism on issues including gender imbalances in salary and career development, sexual harassment, and maternity leave and child care contributed to the creation of a gender center.3 In other institutions, national and institutional commitment was key. For example, one of the objectives of the Presidential Working Party to establish Moi University was to develop a gender center, and the university’s 2005-2014 strategic plan committed to incorporating gender issues in policy decision-making processes.4 Makerere University also enjoyed a supportive national legislative environment in Uganda.5 Description Many institutions, including Jimma University, Moi University, UDSM, and Makerere University, note the role of the gender centers in promoting gender mainstreaming. The gender centers, offices, and committees at the institutions included in this review shared some common functions, including gender equality-related policy development, provision of training, skills-building, mentoring, counseling services, networking, information sharing, and research. Some institutions also provide scholarships to female students (Jimma University,6 Makerere University,5 University of Toronto7); facilitate housing for female faculty (Jimma University,6 University of Western Cape3); develop curricula on gender-related issues (the University of Ghana8); and develop proposals for “gender sensitive infrastructure within the University”9 (Sokoine University of Agriculture). The University of Toronto has multiple offices that work on diversity and equity issues.

  • Effects of Conservation-Induced Displacement on the Bacha of Southwest Ethiopia
    Ethiopian Journal of the Social Sciences and Humanities (EJOSSAH): V. 14, No. 2 ISSN (online): 2520-582X ISSN (print): 1810-4487 Effects of Conservation-induced Displacement on the Bacha of Southwest Ethiopia Deresse Daniel† and Abeje Berhanu Abstract This paper examines the impact of conservation-induced displacement on the Bacha community resulting from the establishment of Chebera-Chuchura National Park in Konta Special Woreda, Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region (SNNPR). It attempts to reconstruct the customary functions that the forestland had played for the livelihoods of the Bacha community and its role in cementing reciprocal relations among different social groups in pre-eviction contexts. The study employed a combination of both qualitative and quantitative research tools including in-depth interviews, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, field observations and household survey. Michael Cernea’s analytical framework to assess the risks associated with displacement – Impoverishment Risk and Reconstruction (IRR) – is employed to see the multifaceted aspects of conservation-induced displacement. The findings revealed that in spite of the fact that displaced Bacha people have enjoyed greater level of access to land they suffered loss of entitlements to forest-based assets such as honey and plants of enormous medicinal value. The community also faced loss of job opportunities due to restrictions imposed on access to forestland that supported beneficial biodiversity for the livelihood of the Bacha people. Also adversely affected are inter-community relations built on reciprocal exchange of goods and services between the Bacha and neighboring farming communities. Now, the Bacha have faced the difficult task of adapting to the land-based crop farming as a new source of livelihood since they lack the necessary farming skills to make a living out of crop farming.

The objective of the study was to assess breeding technology on dairy cattle production at small holder level. To under taken the study, purposive sampling method was used. Data was obtained from both primary and secondary sources and the collected data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The study was found 398.76 average total livestock and 350.3 cattle per households in TLU. The study showed that only 39% of the respondents used artificial insemination for breeding their dairy cattle while 61% did not use. Respectively,42 %, 23%, 19% and 16% of respondents have said artificial insemination has advantage over natural mating because artificial insemination can use in accelerating introduction of new genetics, has low cost in comparison of bull price, no need of bull management and low disease transmission. On the other hand, due to heat period of cow could be easily detected by bull (66%) and no need of technicians support (34%) the respondents have said natural mating has advantage over artificial insemination.

  • Building Agricultural Education and Training Capacity in Post-Conflict Countries: Case Studies from South Sudan and Sub-Saharan Africa”
    Innovation for Agricultural Training and Education “Building agricultural education and training capacity in post-conflict countries: case studies from South Sudan and Sub-Saharan Africa” August 20 and 21, 2013 Kampala, Uganda Compiled by: A. L. (Tom) Hammett USAID/BFS/ARP-Funded Project Award Number: AID-OAA-L-12-00002 1 Contents Workshop summary Synthesis of working groups discussion – Day One Synthesis of working groups discussion – Day Two Summary of research priorities for AET capacity building in post-conflict environment Recommendations Appendices 2 Background The workshop was originally scheduled as a side meeting during the Post-conflict Conference to be held at the University of Juba in South Sudan in early August. Due to the uncertainty after some sudden political changes during the first week of August, the venue was moved to Nairobi, Kenya. The international airport there caught fire causing massive disruption of air traffic and uncertainty of when the airport might be re-opened and return to normal service. So it was decided to move the workshop one more time – to Kampala, Uganda – starting a week later. All but two of the 20 planned participants in the original group were able to attend the newest (third) venue. These two were replaced by local participants working in Uganda. 3 Synthesis of Working Group Discussion – Day One (20 August 2013) On the first day of the workshop, we focused primarily on examining case studies to summarize approaches and identify good practices taken to rebuild agricultural higher education capacity in several post-conflict countries in Africa (workshop objective number one). In addition, we also wished to document dialogue on our discussion of approaches to agricultural capacity building in African post-conflict countries (workshop objective number two).
