    Basics of project planning and analysis: Project identification, formulation and appraisal
    (Mzumbe University, 2010) Rwechungura, F. A
    Preface. Project planning and Analysis is a book that focuses on the methodology or approach of planning and analyzing a project from the perspectives of the owners or funders of the project. The core philosophical base for this book comes from my conviction that, in this country and many other developing countries, university students (under/postgraduates) find it difficult to access the most new and up-to-date reading resources not only in this field but also in other fields as well. Although this book is not a complete substitute for recommended text books for the course, still it is a standalone reading and reference material in the sense that it is a concise and comprehensive account of what any student undertaking this course is supposed to learn. Again the book has been authored in a style that is user friendly even for field workers/practitioners (i.e. the book can be used both as a reference material for students and as a planning guide for practitioners). In order to achieve this goal I have used many diagrams, Boxes, examples and solved self-test questions so as to be able to clearly communicate difficult concepts; and areas covered in this book follow a 'simple to complex' approach in terms of their discussion. The approach I prefer most in my teaching.

    Project planning and management: A text of principles and practice with a case
    (Research, Information and Publication Department, 1996) Ruzibuka, J. E. M; Rutebinga, P. R
    The pace of development in developing countries including Tanzania requires the availability of enough and well trained officers and managers in the field of project planning and project management. This is a challenge to most of the training institutions in these countries to be able to cope with this pressing need for qualified project personnel and to produce the required textbooks and teaching materials relevant to their own countries' economies and project environments, as well as closing the gap which created by lack of foreign exchange to import text books for use in training. This books is meant to meet the above needs and is an outcome of the authors' long experiences in training project planning and management in both long courses and short courses at the Institute of Development Management (IDM) Mzumbe, Morogoro, Tanzania. This book is expected to be of great use to the undergraduate and graduate students in this subject in 'institutions of higher learning and to the vast number of economic planners, engineers, agronomists etc. who are involved in different project works as practitioners in government ministries, Departments, banks, cooperatives and parastatal organizations at different levels. This book will also prove of great use to many academicians in institutions of higher learning. Given the varied and wide range of potential users of this backed the with authors’ case have covered thoroughly the following areas studies: - Pre-Investment planning of projects and their management planning. - Investment stage planning of projects and management. - Post-Investment Planning, Organization of the Projects.
