Clinical superspecialty curriculum and application evidence
MUHAS places this programme among its post-MMed clinical superspecialties, with entry after Obstetrics and Gynaecology specialist training. The 2025/2026–2026/2027 prospectus describes a four-semester structure and publishes practical hours throughout the maternal and fetal medicine curriculum.
The curriculum covers applied foundations, maternal systemic disease, maternal and fetal surgical conditions, community care and ethical issues. Clinical audit progresses from proposal development through data collection, analysis and reporting. The general post-MMed regulations require supervised procedures, logbooks and portfolios; these are clinical training requirements rather than a research-only MSc.
The official programme catalogue says three years, whereas the current prospectus says two. Both claims are retained here; the applicable duration and fees should be confirmed for the individual intake. The catalogue lists annual local tuition of TZS 4,650,000 and foreign tuition of USD 4,845. These are published tuition figures, not an all-inclusive cost, a stipend, or evidence of visa sponsorship. The reviewed documents do not establish a currently open call or available seats.
