“The plan was prepared in a participatory approach.

Furthermore, in his Presentation to the stakeholders, NIT Rector Prof ZachariaMganilwa said: “During the implementation of FYRSP III (2016/17-2020/21), NIT registered a number of achievements and challenges in the course of executing the seven (7) Plan objectives.”

The Rector also said that the internal generated revenue increased from TZS 10,388,646,149/= in 2016/17 to TZS 21,763,900,000/= in 2020/21 an increase of 110%.

“In the just ended rolling strategic plan, we have also observed the inadequate collaboration between tertiary institutions and organized private sectors, inadequate of specialized expertise in Tanzania to some modes of transport such as pipeline, shipping, railways, and air transport as well as outbreak of pandemic disease such as COVID-19 and higher cost for training transport professionals overseas,” he said.
