Abstract: | This study investigates the academic performance of the academic staff in Tanzania’s private
and public universities in the areas of teaching and research activities. The study aims to prove
that there are differences between the two types of universities. An independent-sample t-test
approach was employed to measure those differences. The study revealed that there are
statistically significant differences between the performance in the two types of universities in
terms of the number of research projects, the number of academic publications in international level
peer-reviewed journals, the number of presentations at international-level academic
conferences and the number of academic books published. But with respect to the number of
postgraduate students under academic supervision, the extent of teaching workloads, expressed
in terms of subject units, the number of academic publications in national-level journals and the
number of presentations at national-level conferences there are no significant differences. |
