Bachelor of Agriculture Investment and Banking (BAIB)
This is a full-time (3 years) programme which trains and produce graduates with knowledge and skills in agriculture investment and banking for the possibilities of employing themselves in the agriculture sector as well as develop capacity to undertake research into the social science and problems related to agriculture. The programme is, therefore, designed to develop the knowledge and skills required by those involved in different agricultural activities as currently Tanzania has very few people with investment skills and banking thus the course shall bridge the gap for human resources in investment and development banking.
The delivery of the programme will be face to face contacts, involving lectures, classroom discussions and student-lecturer consultations.
The BAIB programme will be delivered at Sokoine University of Agriculture in Morogoro Municipality.
