The history of the establishment of Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia University

dates back to the year 2003, following a series of stages that began in 1986.
Initially, it served as an annex to the University of Constantine. It later
evolved into a high school for teachers in 1989/1988 and was subsequently
elevated to a university center in 0889. As the center witnessed expansion
on all levels, it became necessary to restructure and create a new university
system capable of accommodating qualitative and quantitative
development. Consequently, the center joined the ranks of Algerian
universities in 1998.

Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia University consistently aims to demonstrate its

modernity and meet every challenge, emphasizing the importance of quality
education and training. It strives to keep pace with economic development
and adapt to modern scientific advancements. The university is committed
to providing exceptional support to its students and offering comprehensive
scientific and cultural training that aligns with contemporary scientific and
technological changes. With the adoption of the new (LMD) system, which
took effect in 2006/2005, Jijel University transformed into a multi-
disciplinary institution.

Who is?
Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia.

This humble man, who died as a martyr while

fulfilling his sacred national duty and carrying a peaceful
message to humanity, is not known to everyone. He was one of
the noblest, most sincere, and kindest Algerian freedom fighters,
as well as a talented poet who emerged from the immortal November Revolution.

Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia was born on January 30, 1938, in Jijel. He earned a
Bachelor's degree in Law from the University of Algiers and quickly showcased
his exceptional intelligence and great talents on numerous occasions. These
qualities enabled him to enter politics and diplomacy at a remarkably young age
of only 26 years. He held various positions and played an active role in the
revolutionary movement and political activities.

In 1955, he participated in the founding of the General Union of Algerian Muslim

Students alongside Ahmed Taleb Ibrahimi and others.
He was involved in organizing the Algerian student strike and their subsequent
integration into the National Liberation Front on May 19, 1956.
Moreover, he represented the National Liberation Front at the Youth Conference
held in Bandung in 1956.
In 1960, he was appointed as a member of the National Council for the Algerian
Revolution; and served as a member of the interim government of the Algerian
Republic.

Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia also played a significant role in the Algerian-French
negotiations that took place in 1960-1962, influencing their course. His personal
shrewdness and persuasive abilities were admired by the French figures
participating in the negotiations, leading them to dub him the "Desert Fox."
He served as Algeria's ambassador to Moscow from 1965 to 1967.
Additionally, he held various ministerial positions, including Minister of Culture
and Information from 19670 to 1970, Minister of Higher Education and Scientific
Research from 1970 to 1976, Minister of Finance from 1976 to 1978, and
ultimately Minister of Foreign Affairs from 1978 to 1982.

Tragically, Mohamed Seddik Ben Yahia passed away on the night of May 3, 1982,
in a plane crash 71 km from the Iraq-Turkey border while on a diplomatic
mission to resolve the conflict between Iraq and Iran. His loss was deeply
mourned, as he left behind a legacy of dedication, intelligence, and remarkable
contributions to Algeria and its people.

 Higher Education System (L.M.D.)

The L.M.D. system, which stands for License-Master-Doctorate, represents a

globally recognized higher education structure. This system provides
accredited degrees that better respond to the real needs of the job market,
thanks to effective educational programs and diverse and coherent training
paths.
The L.M.D. system is based on three stages of education, each leading to a
university degree:
1. First stage: Baccalaureate + 3 years, resulting in a Bachelor's degree
(academic or professional).
2. Second stage: Baccalaureate + 5 years, resulting in a Master's degree
(academic or professional).
3. Third stage: Baccalaureate + 8 years, resulting in a Doctorate degree.
The duration of each stage is as follows:

Doctorate Master's Bachelor's

degree: degree: degree:
3 years of 2 years of 3 years of
study study. study

Key features of the L.M.D. system:

The L.M.D. system is based on a more coherent vision of providing

education, organized into fields of study structured as typical paths. The
model path represents a harmonious arrangement of educational units within
a defined curriculum offered by the training team.

The model path allows students to gradually build their educational

project. Each student can create an individualized path with the assistance
and guidance of one or several training teams from one or multiple higher
education institutions.
Courses are coordinated and organized into major fields of study. Based on
this, students are directed towards their desired specialization according to
their skills and abilities.

18
Field:
The field of training consists of a set of disciplines and specializations that are
harmonized in terms of educational programs, scientific skills, and
technologies, which translate into the competencies of the higher education
institution.

Discipline (Training Offer):

The discipline is a branch of the training field and determines the specificity of
education within it. A discipline can be single-specialty or multi-specialty.

Specialization:
The specialization is a subdivision of the discipline and defines the training path
and the competencies that the student must acquire.

Educational Units:
An educational unit consists of one or more subjects organized in a pedagogically
coherent manner, such as lectures, guided work, practical activities, projects,
internships, etc. An educational unit can be mandatory or elective. These units
are offered over a period of six months, with the aim of achieving tangible
competencies. Educational units and their constituent subjects are assigned
credits and are evaluated accordingly.

The value of an educational unit is measured in credits, based on the number of

hours required in the semester to acquire knowledge and qualifications
through the aforementioned forms of education. It also depends on the volume
of activities that the student is required to undertake in the same semester
(individual work, reports, papers, internships, etc.).

Educational units are distributed over semesters and are divided into:

1. Core Education Unit: It includes the essential subjects necessary for

continuing studies in the respective discipline.

2. Exploratory Education Unit: It includes educational materials that enable the

student to broaden their knowledge horizon and open up other avenues in case
of redirection, thanks to the diversity of subjects that characterize this concept.

19
 Universeity Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia-Jijel

03. Methodological Education Unit:

Brings together educational materials related to the methodological tools
necessary to help students achieve their training path.
04. Presentation Education Unit:

Brings together educational materials such as living languages, computer

science, information and communication technologies, humanities, etc.,
which are essential tools for acquiring general culture and methodological
techniques that facilitate professional integration and adaptation to a
constantly changing environment.
Credit:
One credit is equivalent to a workload of 20 to 25 hours per semester,
including teaching hours provided to students through various forms of
education, as well as estimated hours for students' individual work.
The total value of credits assigned to the educational units comprising the
semester is thirty (30) credits.
Transfer:
A transfer is an opportunity for students to modify their training path in
their original institution or in another institution according to the principle
of mobility.
Bachelor's Degree
The Bachelor's degree is the first level of higher education, which
students obtain after completing a six-semester academic journey. It
includes multidisciplinary foundational training (or core training) ranging
from one to four semesters, dedicated to acquiring the initial principles of
the degree's relevant specializations and familiarizing oneself with the
principles of university life and exploration. It is followed by specialized
training in two branches:

Academic Track:
This option allows for the pursuit of academic education starting from the
Bachelor's level to the Doctorate, passing through the Master's degree. This
training option can be either a fundamental or an academic study type,
depending on the acquired qualifications, obtained results, and admission
requirements.

Digital copies of all academic transcripts for the academic track followed.
Vocational Branch
It is an educational option that allows students to obtain a professional bachelor's
or master's degree, which enables them to directly integrate into the workforce. Its
programs are determined through extensive consultation with the employment sector.

This branch requires different types of professional bachelor's degrees to ensure its
effectiveness and the need to specify a specialization related to the profession.

M. Master
The master's degree has a national character and is open to candidates who meet
the conditions specified in Decision N° 998 dated 02 August 2022, which determines
the conditions for admission and registration in higher education to obtain a master's
degree, regardless of their original institutions.
Students are informed about the available master's programs each academic year
through publication on the website of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific
Research and other communication channels immediately after the qualification
decisions are issued.

Registration for master's studies is subject to the following criteria:

The candidate's expressed preference in the preference card.
The candidate's academic track record.
The capacity for acceptance and supervision in the master's program.
The degree obtained by the candidate, which allows for studies in the master's
program.

The branches that are allowed to join the master's program are determined in the
conditions booklet for master's training, and students must be informed about them
through publication and other communication channels.

Registration Process:
Candidates wishing to enroll in the master's program must submit their registration
file electronically through the platform: https://prores.mesrs.dz/webinscription.

To register for the first or second year of the master's program, candidates must
provide the following documents:

21
 Certificate of good conduct and behavior issued by the original institution.

Students who have received a second-degree disciplinary penalty during

their bachelor's degree program are prohibited from registering for the
master's program for a period of one year starting from the date of the
disciplinary council meeting.

When reviewing candidates' files, the pedagogical results of the academic

track and relevant data are taken into consideration. Candidates may undergo
an examination or an interview before a committee formed by the master's
training team.
The university annually determines the capacity for admission in terms of
academic positions for the master's program. It also determines their
distribution into sessions according to each category of the following
graduates:
1. Graduates of the institution, newcomers, with a Bachelor's degree (L.M.D
system).
2. Graduates of other institutions, newcomers, with a Bachelor's degree
(L.M.D system).
3. Graduates of the institution, old system (L.M.D).
4. Graduates of other institutions, old system (L.M.D).
5. Graduates of the classic system.
6. Holders of a recognized foreign degree.
7. Graduates employed in the economic and social sector.

The higher education institution guarantees registration in the first year of

the master's program for all its candidates who hold a bachelor's degree and
graduated in the latest batch. It provides an additional quota of up to 20% of
the available academic seats in the first year of the master's program for each
training program offered to former graduates of the institution and candidates
from other higher education institutions.

The distribution of the total quota among different categories of graduates

is determined by the university's assessment.
Registration for the master's program for graduates employed in the
economic and social sector is carried out under an agreement between the
university and the relevant sector.

Registration in the first year of the master's program is open to:

Graduates holding a bachelor's degree in the (L.M.D system) or an equivalent

foreign degree.
22
 Candidates who hold a Baccalaureate +4 years in the classic system, a
bachelor's degree in the old system, a postgraduate degree, or any equivalent
foreign university degree are subject to the specified registration requirements.

The announcement of enrollment in the first year of the master's program is

made by the institution after the ranking process based on the candidates' merit,
as mentioned above. The candidates are informed of this ranking through
publication and other communication channels.

Registration in the second year of the master's

program may be allowed to obtain a master's degree based on the approval of
the Ranking and Guidance Committee for those who:
1- Hold a Baccalaureate +5 years degree awarded by higher education
institutions, or candidates with an equivalent recognized foreign degree.
2- Hold a degree in medical sciences awarded by higher education institutions, or
candidates with an equivalent recognized foreign degree.

Admission to the master's program is based on competition based on the

Master's degree holders can apply for registration at the higher education
institution to prepare for a second master's degree within the remaining
academic seats of the additional quota.

The doctoral degree

Represents the final stage in the (L.M.D) system, where the student who holds
a master's degree can continue their studies in research and dedicate themselves
to the profession of researcher or assistant professor.

The doctoral program should have a minimum duration of six semesters.

Given the significant development in information and specialized fields, as well as
the applied nature of research, the program should ensure deepening knowledge
in the field of specialization and developing preparedness for research practice
and collaborative work.

This program culminates in a doctoral degree after the preparation of a

research dissertation.

 Universeity Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia-Jijel

Training organization:

The training is organized to obtain a bachelor's degree or a master's degree

in fields and branches that branch out into academic or professional
specializations. This organization allows the student to choose either the typical
path or build an individual training path based on their qualifications and
future professional project.

The training, according to the various paths and levels, includes theoretical,
methodological, and practical education. Additionally, depending on its goals, it
may include elements of general culture, pre-professional elements,
professional elements, individual or group projects, internships, and learning
academic work methods, using documentation sources and IT media, as well as
proficiency in foreign languages. The training may also involve the preparation
of a report, an internship report, or the completion of a final project, and in the
second phase, training the student in research.

Education in each training path is organized into semesters that include

teaching units. The training paths for obtaining a bachelor's degree are
organized into six semesters, consisting of three stages:
1. The first stage is an introductory stage to university life, adaptation to it,
and discovering the initial principles of specializations.
2. The second stage is a deepening stage, consolidating knowledge, and
gradual guidance.
3. The third stage is a specialization stage, allowing the acquisition of
knowledge and qualifications in the chosen field.

The training paths for obtaining a master's degree are organized into four
semesters, consisting of two stages:
1. The first stage is dedicated to common education for several branches
and/or specializations within the same training field, as well as deepening
knowledge and gradual guidance.
2. The second stage includes specialization in training and training the
student in research and the preparation of a report.

Universeity Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia-Jijel

Lesson format

The purpose of the lesson is to present the theoretical aspect of the subject
being taught. The delivery of lessons and guided activities can be ensured either
in-person or remotely, depending on the training team's assessment.
Guided activities aim to help students comprehend and deepen the
knowledge presented during the lesson through practical exercises or any
pedagogical activity chosen by the teaching team. Attendance in guided
activities is mandatory, and the teacher in charge of the guided activities must
monitor attendance for each session, taking it into account during the
assessment process.
Applied activities aim to assist students in applying some or all of the
knowledge presented in the lesson, which has been deepened in the guided
activities. They can also serve as a means of clarification and support for the
lesson.
Attendance in applied activities is mandatory, and the teacher in charge of
the applied activities must monitor attendance for each session in order to
calculate absences, which are taken into account during the assessment
process.
Wearing appropriate attire (work apron) is mandatory in laboratories or
workshops. The teacher in charge of the applied activities prepares them, with
the assistance of laboratory engineers and technicians.

25
 Assessment and Progression:

Forms of Assessment:
The student's evaluation and progression occur annually. Evaluation can take the form
of continuous monitoring, final exams, or a combination of both, as determined in the
training program. The various forms of assessment should aim to ensure the student's
abilities and competencies, particularly in areas of summarization, analysisthinking. , and
critical
At the beginning of each semester, the department head, in consultation with the
training team, determines the schedule, teaching methods, and forms of assessment. This
information is communicated to students and teachers through all available means of
communication.
Student evaluation includes the following:
* Lessons * Guided activities
* Applied activities * Workshops
* Field trips * Practical internships * Personal work
The grade for guided activities is calculated based on the student's evaluation marks.
The grade for applied activities or workshops is based on exam scores and report marks,
following a specified weighting in the training program. The assessment methods and
their weighting are determined in the training program.
There are two exam sessions for each semester: a regular session and a makeup
session. The makeup session takes place after the annual deliberations of the regular
sessions. Participation in the deliberations is a pedagogical practice that culminates all the
pedagogical duties of the teacher. A semester or annual deliberation committee is
established each academic year.
The committee is responsible for approving the final exam results and considering the
possibility of remedial measures based on individual cases. Deliberations are conducted
exclusively through the digital platform under the supervision of the Ministry of
Education, Higher Education, and Scientific Research, within the integrated information
system known as "Progrès."
The finalized deliberation results are communicated to students through their digital
space (e-publishing).

26
 Progression in Training
The transition from the first semester to the second semester of the same
academic year and the same training program is considered a right for every
regularly enrolled student.

Progression in training to obtain a bachelor's degree

A student acquires a study unit if they pass all the constituent subjects,
resulting in the accumulation of assigned credits.

A study unit can also be acquired through compensation if the total marks
obtained in the constituent subjects, weighted by their coefficients, equal or
exceed (10/20).

The acquired credits can be retained within the same training phase or
transferred to another training track that includes this study unit.

Exclusion from any of the constituent subjects of a study unit is not allowed,
regardless of the average marks obtained in the other subjects of this study
unit.
In all cases, the acquired subjects remain eligible for retention.

A semester is acquired by a student who passes all the study units it

comprises, with the semester average equaling or exceeding (10/20). It can
also be acquired through compensation between the constituent study units,
weighted by their coefficients, with the semester average equaling or
exceeding (10/20). The acquisition of a semester results in the accumulation of
thirty (30) credits assigned to it.

A student is allowed to transition from the first year to the second year of a
bachelor's degree program in the following two cases:
1. By acquiring the first two semesters with a total of sixty (60) credits, either
with or without compensation.
2. By acquiring a minimum of fifteen (45) credits between the two semesters.

27
 Universeity Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia-Jijel

And the transition from the second year to the third year is allowed either
by:
1. Acquiring all four semesters with a total of 120 credits, either with or
without compensation, or by acquiring a minimum of 105 credits.
In case of transferring with a debt, the student's new grade in the subject
related to the debt is taken into account if it is higher than the grade obtained
in the previous academic year.
2. In the case of failure in the regular session, the student can participate in
the makeup session for the non-acquired exams and retain the acquired
subjects.
The final grade for the subject is the average between the continuous
assessment grade and the highest grade obtained in both the regular and
makeup sessions.
A student cannot stay in the training program for more than 5 years to
obtain a bachelor's degree, even in the case of redirection.

Progression in Training for a Master's Degree

The transition from the first year to the second year of a master's degree
program is allowed if the student acquires all six semesters with a total of 60
credits, either with or without compensation. The second year is acquired
without compensation between the third and fourth semesters. In case of
failure in the regular session, the student can participate in the makeup
session for the non-acquired study units.
A student cannot stay for more than three (3) years to obtain a master's
degree, and years of training suspension are not taken into account, while
years of interruption in training are considered.
A student who has not acquired 120 credits within 3 years of training is
excluded from obtaining a master's degree, and years of training suspension
are not taken into account, while years of interruption in training are
considered.
The final thesis for obtaining a master's degree is defended in two sessions,
regular and makeup.
The master's degree is awarded to students who have fulfilled the
academic progression requirements in the training program and have
acquired 120 credits.

28
Universeity Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia-Jijel

After completing the Master's degree,

the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research has introduced
the requirement to allocate at least one educational module for preparing a
final thesis or project.

At the level of higher education institutions, a mechanism has been

established to obtain the "University Certificate - Startup Institution"
distinction or to submit a request for a patent (University Certificate -
Patent).

The proposal for the final thesis or project can be made by participating
research professors at the university institutions, by the concerned students
themselves, or in coordination with a professional from the social and
economic sector, provided that the number of participating students in
preparing this project does not exceed six (06) students, and the training
teams approve the topics of these projects.

Different specializations can prepare a thesis within the framework of the

"University Certificate - Startup Institution" or "University Certificate -
Patent." The subject of the thesis or final project is approved by the training
teams and the accompanying entities (business incubator, entrepreneurship
center, etc.).

The thesis or final project can only be defended after approval by the
supervisor(s).

The defense of the thesis or the results of the final project are organized in
regular and makeup sessions.

After the defense, the student is given an assessment grade based on the
results obtained, and the student is declared successful. As for the students
involved in the defense of the theses (University Certificate - Startup
Institution, etc.), they are awarded a grade based on their attainment of the
"Innovative Project" or "Startup Institution" label. The project is evaluated as
follows:

1. Clarity and soundness of the main idea: 20% of the final grade.
2. Innovative aspects of the project: 25% of the final grade.
3. Validity of the business model canvas (BMC): 30% of the final grade.
4. Achievement of the initial prototype: 25% of the final grade. The defense

 Attendance and Absence during the Training Program

Lessons and guided activities can be provided either in person or remotely,

based on the opinions of the training team. The attendance of students in
guided activities, workshops, and practical work is mandatory throughout the
semester. The professor responsible for guided activities and/or practical work
must monitor attendance in each session in order to account for absences
during the evaluation process.

Students who are subject to medical monitoring or participate in elite

sports competitions benefit from a flexible attendance system determined by
the department head, according to their commitment requirements based on
documentary evidence issued by the relevant authorities.

In the case of justified absence from a guided activity session, practical

work, workshops, or continuous monitoring, the student is entitled to a
compensatory session only once, before the final exams period during the
semester. If the student is absent from the compensatory session, they will
receive a "zero" grade for that session.

In the case of unjustified absence from continuous monitoring, a guided

activity session, practical work, or workshops, a "zero" grade will be awarded in
that case.

A student who is absent from a guided activity session, practical work, or

workshops must provide justification to the department within three (3) days
following the date of absence. The department head will endorse the
justification, indicating the date of submission, before sending it to the
responsible person for the subject or the relevant teaching unit, and the
justification document will be kept in the student's pedagogical file.

Absence is considered justified in the following cases:

1- Death of immediate family members or relatives.
2- Marriage of the concerned student.
3- Maternity or paternity leave of the concerned student.
4- Illness of the concerned student.
5- Official assignment or summons.

All other cases are subject to the evaluation of the department head.

The aforementioned cases of absence should be justified with documentary

evidence issued by the authorized authorities.

Supervision:
The LMD system introduced new concepts in higher education aimed at
informing and guiding students and integrating them into university life, as well
as facilitating access to information about the world of work, through the
adoption of the principle of supervision.
Supervision is the task of continuous monitoring and accompanying the student.
In this regard, this task encompasses several aspects, including:
1. The informational and administrative aspect, which involves welcoming and
guiding students who have obtained the baccalaureate certificate and are
enrolled in the first year of the bachelor's degree program.
2. The pedagogical aspect, which involves supporting student learning,
organizing their personal work, helping them build their educational path, and
providing them with the necessary assistance to overcome any shortcomings.
3. The methodological aspect, which involves teaching university course
curricula individually and collectively.
4. The technical aspect, which involves guiding students in the use of
educational tools and resources, supporting them in acquiring the necessary
work methods to achieve success (such as report preparation, research
presentations, projects, etc.), and assisting them in finding references and
audiovisual techniques and utilizing the Internet.
5. The psychological aspect, which involves motivating and encouraging
students to pursue their educational path, helping them integrate into
university and community life (such as sports activities, scientific clubs, cultural
associations).
6. The professional aspect, which involves assisting students in preparing their
professional projects.
The supervisor is a research professor at the university or a student pursuing
their master's or doctoral studies. The supervisor guides small groups of first-
year students, sharing their experience and skills, and teaching them effective
work methods that help them acquire knowledge and ensure success.

33
Disciplinary Council:
Every student within the university campus is subject to general rules of discipline
and maintaining order, based on respect for others and preserving the institution's
property and facilities.
Every student is required to respect, particularly, the provisions of the institution's
internal regulations.
Each student must present their identification card during every inspection by
university authorities.
Every student must comply with the cleanliness and security rules established
within the institution.
The disciplinary council is established at every higher education institution:
- A disciplinary council for the institution itself,

The disciplinary council is formed by a decree from the institution's director. It
consists of five permanent members and five additional members, elected from
among the relevant faculty members.
One permanent member represents the students, and another additional member
is elected from among the students of the relevant department.
The department's disciplinary council is responsible for adjudicating first-degree
violations committed within the department.
The disciplinary council, its composition, and authority are established at every
higher education institution. The faculty or institute's disciplinary council is
responsible for adjudicating second-degree violations committed within the
faculty or institute.
The institution's disciplinary council has jurisdiction over all violations, regardless
of their degree, especially violations committed in educational and administrative
spaces not directly affiliated with a specific faculty, institute, or department.
It serves as the appeal body against the decisions of the faculty, institute, or
department's disciplinary council and has the authority to decide on requests for
reinstatement and pardon.
