Minister of Higher Education, Scientific Research, and Innovation, Abdellatif Miraoui said his decision to cancel the bachelor’s system is justified by different factors.
During an oral question session in the House of Councilors on Tuesday, Miraoui explained that the bachelor system had to be scrapped because it was implemented without relying on the national pedagogical control system and without ratifying the regulating draft decree, among other flaws he couldn’t name.
The government official further stated that the bachelor’s system’s incorporation in select Moroccan universities was experimental and did not involve all universities.
“It was decided to abandon this 4-year program and continue with the French degree system,” he said, adding that his Ministry is looking towards measures to strengthen it, mainly improving language, communication, and soft skills among students.
The Higher Education Minister stated that all universities, without exception collaborated with the heads of divisions to integrate enrolled students into approved French degrees in the same specialization.
The Minister also stated that the exams date has been pushed back from January 10 to February 28, allowing students to have enough time to prepare and study.
Previously, the government spokesperson Mustapha Baitas stated that “the Supreme Education Council noticed that the 4-year program has flaws and must be reconsidered.”
