Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET) emerged in 2006 from the Uhandisi Journal, established in 1974. From 1974 to 2005, the Journal was published in print form under the name Uhandisi Journal. However, efforts were made to ensure that all available past articles were scanned and uploaded online to preserve the history and track record of the Journal.

Following the institutional transformation of the College of Engineering and Technology at the University of Dar es Salaam, it was considered necessary to change the name of the Journal to meet new challenges and opportunities over the years. In 2006, the Journal's name was changed to Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET). The Journal is a forum for communication and dissemination of applied sciences, engineering and technological research between and among Engineers, Scientists, allied professionals and the general public. It is published in print and electronic forms by the College of Engineering and Technology thrice a year, normally in April, August and December.

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology is currently Indexed/Abstracted in: African Journals OnLine (AJOL); EBSCO; Google Scholar; ASCI; database
