Principal KICOHAS

On behalf of everyone at KIUMA College of Health and Allied Sciences, let me extend a very warm welcome to our college and wonderful community. We are committed to provide facilities of the highest standard to ignite autonomous spirit of knowledge that broadens the mind sets and creates positive attitudes.

Our teachers are highly dedicated and put every child at the heart of everything they do. Our staff are deeply passionate about providing high-quality education, both in and outside the classroom, to ensure our students have the best possible chances of success both at school and in the future.

As the Principal of KICOHAS, I believe that it is my responsibility to maintain and continue to build supportive and collaborative spirit at our school. We are very proud of our school and especially proud of our amazing students. Together as a school community, we will build on the traditions of the past and meet the challenges of the future in innovative and exciting ways.

Sincerely,
Dr. James Kasekele

About KICOHAS

The rural population in southern Tanzania lacks doctors and healthcare professionals. There is an acute shortage of medically trained staff and hospitals. In 2020, we launched Clinical medicine course at KIUMA College to enable young people to train as medical professionals. The first students have successfully completed their training after three years.

KIUMA College of Healthy is located about 64 km from Tunduru city centre, and on the highway to Songea District it's accessible by public transport, which is easily available from the city centre. Given the Trategic location of KIUMA, KICOHAS is strategically positioned to serve applicants around the southern part of Tanzania and specifically those coming from rural areas of the Southern Tanzania, who hitherto could not find training opportunities in the area. Additionally, the geographical location and KIUMA weather render a convenient place for all students from other places.
