Master of Religious Studies with Education

JUCO?s experience of offering courses in Religious Studies to students of Theology and Catechetical Programmes for over fifteen years led to the need of creating a Bachelor Degree Programme of Education with Religious Studies in order to prepare teachers of Christian Religion in the everincreasing numbers of secondary schools in Tanzania. Consequently, it was decided to create a Master Programme for those students who performed well in their undergraduate studies and wish to deepen their knowledge.

  • Integrate theory and practice in education and develop in-depth knowledge and expertise in students‟ areas of specialization.
