In achieving all these, the
University sets out to conduct inter-disciplinary and
multi/trans-disciplinary research by providing research funding to
academic staff members. This requires a comprehensive and dynamic
Research Agenda that can guide researchers to solicit funds to
facilitate their research activities. The UDSM Research Agenda 2018/19 -
2028/29 therefore aims at promoting research projects designed to find
practical solutions to societal needs and emerging challenges.

of the challenges that the University of Dar es Salaam seeks to address
through research is the global pandemic of COVID-19, which has led to

more pronounced in developing countries including Tanzania. It is on
this basis that the University of Dar es Salaam is setting some funds
aside to support research projects that aim at investigating the
dynamics of COVID-19 including its epidemiological aspects as well as
