Welcome to the SPHSS
The School of Public Health and Social Sciences (SPHSS) is one of five schools within Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS). The School came into being in the year 2003 after merger of the former Institute of Public Health, the Institute of Developmental Studies and the Institute of Primary Health Care and Continuing Education. All the former institutes date back to July 1991 when they were established after the then faculty of medicine was upgraded into a Muhimbili University College of Health Sciences.
