RECENTLY University of Iringa (UOI) (formerly Tumaini University College) has conducted the 19th Graduation Ceremony which saw a lot of graduands awarded with certificates, diplomas and degrees.

The Guardian on Sunday managed to talk to one of the graduands he has this to say about his fellow students who have graduated this year in various colleges and universities across the country.

Crispin Nyomoye is Public Relations Officer (PRO) at University of Iringa has this to advise his fellow students.

He has challenged his fellow university graduates to think outside the box and form partnership with other colleagues and universities graduates in order to create jobs for themselves and others.

Nyomoye was one of graduates awarded with a Masters Degree of Arts in Journalism and Media Management during the 19th Graduation Ceremony of UOI on 19th November 2016, which is first master’s degree in Tanzania and East Africa to be offered. 
He said that many graduates of today are stuck in a job hunting cycle because they haven’t thought of innovative ideas.

"Most of the youth graduates these days are thinking of being employed rather than employing themselves…," he said.

He said in the global economic, social and political turbulent environment, only creative, skillful and innovative graduates who are able to move beyond the conventional methods of doing things could survive.

On his part, the Board Chairman of University of Iringa for the Evangelical Lutheran Church (ELCT) Diocese of Iringa, Dk. Owdenburg Mdegella (retired), has hailed the government on a new strategy that could bring an end to the use of fake certificates in securing jobs in the country.

He said that there has been an increase of use of fake degrees and certificates to secure employment in the country.

Dr. Mdegella made statement yesterday during the 19th Graduation of University of Iringa (UOI), where certificates, diplomas, degrees and master degrees were awarded to graduates in various fields by the UOI Chancellor retired Chief Justice Augustino Ramadhani.

He said the move by the government seeks to curb the use of fake certificates in securing jobs in an economy with a shortage of openings in the job market.

He said the move will empower the authority which regulates and supervises all qualifications given to students and maintain validity of degrees.

Dr. Mdegella said there is a stiff competition of colleges and universities in the country, but still they will continue to do well and exceed the most professional ascent.

He said they will continue to do well due to greater capacity and better accountability of the leaders of the university in promoting unity and solidarity in running the learning institution, thus urging all citizens continuously received good education at the university.
