Badji Mokhtar University – Annaba (UBMA) (Arabic: جامعة باجي مختار-عنابة) is one of the largest universities in Algeria, located in Annaba, on the northeastern coast of Algeria. It is named after the chahid Badji Mokhtar, an Algerian political activist and independence fighter, one of the 22 historical leaders responsible for launching the Algerian War of Independence.
History
[edit | edit source]Created by Ordinance 28/75 on April 29, 1975 from the infrastructure of the former Institute of Mines and Metallurgy of Annaba, the University of Annaba has progressively developed with the opening of new fields of study every year. Initially structured into departments attached to the Rectorate, the university saw in 1980 the creation of five institutes (Social sciences, Arabic language and literature, Natural sciences, Exact sciences and technology, and Medical sciences[2])[3] · [4]
By 1993, it operated with 20 institutes grouped into three main areas:
Formerly offering multidisciplinary training leading to D.E.S., Licence, Engineer, and Higher Technician (DEUA), the University of Annaba was among the pioneers in adopting the new LMD system (Licence–Master–Doctorate). Although primarily technology-oriented, it has maintained a strong tradition in the humanities since its founding. These characteristics make it a privileged site for interdisciplinarity and interaction with its social and industrial environment.
