History
In 1977, the University has been founded under the name of University of Batna. In the 80's, it was named after Pr. Abrouk Madani, a former lecturer and researcher who acted as the first Rector. In the 90's the University structures expanded through the opening of new Faculties and Institutes, which encouraged the rectorate's administration to suggest the name of the Algerian national Hero Mostefa Ben Boulaïd. Also called the father of the Algerian revolution whom centunary celebration was held in the city of Batna on 4 February 2017 in recognition of his great efforts and leadership as the first commander of zone 1 in the Aurès during the Algerian liberation war against the French in the mid 50's. As of July 2015, the structure was comprising (09) faculties, (05) Institutes and a central library. Due to the continuously increasing demand of the baccalaureate holders in Algeria, the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, with the recommendation of the prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal, adopted a new decentralization strategy as part of the new LMD (Licence Master Doctorate) orientations for a better and efficient higher educational management. This was a major reconstruction that split the University into 02 distinct Universities, namely: University of Batna 1 and University of Batna 2. Now University of Batna 2 Mostefa Ben Boulaïd is widely known as a science/technology oriented, although it comprises a faculty of Letters and Foreign Languages where English and French departments offer a wide range of courses including the fields of linguistics, didactics, culture and civilization.
