Summary of the Network (one page)
The Materials Science and Solar Energy Network for Eastern and Southern Africa (acronym MSSEESA), was
established in 2004 as an international partnership aiming at fostering efficient and effective use of human and
infrastructure capacity in advanced research in Materials Science and Solar Energy in the sub-region.
Membership is open to materials science and solar energy research groups in the region. Currently the network
has five nodes: University of Dar es Salaam (Departments of Physics and Chemistry), Moi University
(Department of Physics), University of Nairobi (Department of Physics), Makerere University (Department of
Physics) and the University of Zambia (Department of Physics).
The vision of the Network is that MSSEESA becomes a laboratory of ideas or a think-tank to assist member
institutions by formulating strategies and provide direction regarding Materials Scence in Solar Energy
research and related activities in the sub-region.
The overall goal of the Network is therefore to strengthen the research facilities and Postgraduate Training
Programmes by complementing the activities of Materials Science and Solar Energy in the various institutions
of Eastern and Southern Africa.
The management of the network is through a Coordinating Office headed by the Chief Coordinator whose
main function is to oversee the implementation of MSSEESA activities and programmes as approved by the
Coordinating Board. Each member university has a University Coordinating Office headed by a University
Coordinator (necessarily a member of respective Materials Science Research Group) whose main function is
to oversee the implementation of MSSEESA activities in the respective university and Research Group. Under
this proposal the University of Dar es Salaam will co-ordinate the MSSEESA activities for the triennium.
The Network is viewed as a platform to facilitate the following (among other) issues: Sharing of research
facilities; Joint offering of courses/programs; Student exchange; Staff exchange and joint supervision;
Information exchange and provision; Production of Regional journal; Organization of conferences, workshops,
colleges, etc
The following strategic developmental issues have been identified:
a) Strengthening joint postgraduate training and expanding MSc and PhD programmes. For example,
coursework for MSc programs can be collectively offered to a group of students gathered at one of the
institutions in the sub-region. Otherwise, student/teacher exchange among the institutions could serve as an
alternative.
b) Cooperating institutions to harmonise the postgraduate curricula as well as policies related to the
development and approval of postgraduate programmes and review other related policy issues (e.g. credit
transfers, etc.);
c) Establishing regular and flexible technical training courses linked with equipment manufacturers. It may be
cost-effective to conduct collective training rather than to sponsor several individual trainings at scattered
different locations.
d) Establishing a platform for dissemination of information amongst those working in the field of Materials
Science and Solar Energy in the region.;
e) Auditing the resources that can be shared, in terms of equipment, exposure, experience, personnel and
research interests/activities. Although it is not possible to put ALL the essential research equipment at one
institution – because of limited space; it is possible to scatter them within the region for efficient use
through exchange of students/ researchers in the region. This fact also addresses the shortage of academic
staff;
f) Establishing a platform for dissemination of information amongst those working in the field of Materials
Science and Solar Energy in the region.
g) Introducing tailor-made multi-displinary M.Sc and Ph.D programmes.
The funding support to MSSEESA is needed to enable the network achieve the following:
To train massively young staff in order to lower the current high age profile that is common in most network’s
member universities. To improve research facilities in the region and facilitate sharing of major research
equipment.

Summary of major achievements (full details in enclosure)
The main achievements obtained so far include;
o Concrete regional network in materials science and solar energy (MSSEESA)
established with five nodes; Two nodes have officially registered and launched and
the other three are on their final stages for registration.
o 9 Colleges on Thin Film Technology have been organised/conducted successfully
and though these colleges new members and students have been motivated to join
the field.
o A number of publications both in conference proceedings and international journals
have emerged as result research conducted by different nodes under the MSSEESA
network.
o A number of key research equipment have been acquired and some were repaired.
o Though seminars, conferences and research visits a number of technical reports
and publications have been made through journals and proceedings leading to
improved staff profiles and promotions.
o A good number of young materials scientists have been trained at M.Sc. and Ph.D.
levels.
o Over 50 study visits to the Solar Energy Lab arranged.
o Modernised laboratory established
o INFORM workshop was conducted for young scientist under the Network.
o Active Learning workshop in Optics and Photonics (ALOP 2007) workshop was
conducted for the young scientist under the Network,
o Developed outreach activities –
Development of PV curriculum for Vocational Training Centres in Tanzania
Installation of PV systems in schools and Health centres aiming at improving
quality of education an health care services
Installation of Solar powered Radio communication to aid tourist industry in
Kilwa Kisiwani (UNESCO - world heritage site)
