OVERVIEW: The
Ardhi University (ARU) was established after transforming the former
University College of Lands and Architectural Studies (UCLAS) which was
then a constituent college of the University of Dar es Salaam from 1st
July 1996. The history of Ardhi University, however, dates back to 1956
when the then Surveying Training School offering land surveying
technician certificate courses was established at the present location
of Mgulani Salvation Army Camp in Dar es Salaam. Then, that school was
moved to the present location at which it is today (the Observation
Hill) in 1958. In 1972, the school became called Ardhi Institute. The
Institute offered two-year diploma programmes in the fields of Land
Surveying and Land Management and Valuation. In the same year a
three-year Diploma program in Urban and Rural Planning was introduced.

By
the Act of the Parliament No. 35 of 1974, Ardhi Institute was made a
parastatal organisation and consequently the duration of two-years was
extended to three years. Later in 1975, all the three-year diploma
programes were upgraded to Advanced Diploma level. The Building Design
and Building Economics courses started in 1976 and 1978 respectively. In
the 1979, the Centre for Housing Studies was established as a joint
project between the Government of Tanzania and the Netherlands. The
centre has now grown into the Institute of Human Settlement Studies
(IHSS). In early 1980s, the Public Health Engineering (later named
Environmental Engineering) course was introduced.

As
pointed out earlier, in 1996 the Ardhi Institute was affiliated to the
University of Dar es Salaam and became a constituent college of the
University. It then became known as the University College of Lands and
Architectural Studies (UCLAS). Two legal instruments, namely, Government
Notice (GN) Number 148 of June 29th, 1996 and University of Dar es
Salaam (UDSM) Act No.12 of 1970 provided the basis for the establishment
of UCLAS.

Within
ten (10) years of its existence (i.e. 1996-2006) UCLAS increased the
number of academic programmes from six (6) to thirty nine (39). The
programmes ranging from diploma to PhD were offered by two faculties,
that is, the Faculty of Architecture and Planning (FAP) and the Faculty
of Lands and Environmental Engineering (FLEE). As a result of those
changes, student enrolment increased from only 400 in 1996 to about
1,400 in 2007. At the same time the number of academic staff with PhD
increased from 3 in 1996 to 43 in 2008.
At
last, Ardhi University came into being after the signing of Ardhi
University Charter by His Excellency the President of United Republic of
Tanzania, Hon. Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete on 28th March, 2007. The
University Charter was prepared basing on the Universities Act No. 7 of
2005. The establishment of ARU went concurrently with the establishment
of various schools.
