University of Monastir

The University of Monastir was established under Decree No. 2102 of 2004, dated September 2, 2004. This creation was announced as part of the reform of the university education system, a reform based on the decentralization of services and aimed at improving the efficiency of the system through a comprehensive approach that considers both the scientific and academic aspects, as well as the social dimension.
Although the decision to establish the university is relatively recent, the University of Monastir includes 16 higher education institutions spread across the governorates of Monastir and Mahdia. Some of these institutions have deep roots and have significantly contributed to the innovation of modern Tunisia. Indeed, the University of Monastir is a valuable asset that will greatly contribute to advancing the knowledge society.
