Hassan II University of Casablanca [UH2C] is a public university of higher education situated in the industrial capital of the Moroccan Kingdom. It was created in September 2014 after a merger of Hassan II University of Mohammedia with Hassan II University of Ain Chock, but the first establishment was in 1975. Studies are primarily conducted in Arabic and French. Other languages such as English, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Chinese etc. are also taught as courses. Consisting of 18 institutions located in the 6 campuses of Casablanca and Mohammedia, the university offers a variety of programs for undergraduates, Master’s and Doctorate students in the fields of pure and technical sciences, health sciences, arts and humanities, and finally, law, economics and management. The university counts around 130 000 students, 2316 full-time teachers and 939 administrative and technical staff.  The university is endeavouring to achieve national and international visibility in terms of scientific research through its various scientific structures (125 laboratories, 8 Research Centres, 2 Research Platforms and an Observatory).

In terms of partnerships and cooperation, the UH2C has concluded more than 335 cooperation agreements with different universities and organisations all over the world since its merger.
