The École nationale des sciences appliquées d'Oujda or ENSA d'Oujda is a Moroccan Grande École d'Ingénieurs, is a part of the network of ENSA, a group of higher education Moroccan public schools.

History

ENSAO was founded in 1999 to train highly qualified engineers. It is located in Oujda.

Academics

The training lasts 5 years. ENSAO and is divided into two cycles:

  • Preparatory cycle (2 years)

During this cycle, emphasis is on the basic engineering sciences (mathematics, physics, chemistry, mechanics and software) and then gradually, the curriculum is open to more specialized areas in science and technology. This cycle allows general preparatory student engineers (ENSAistes) to acquire a solid background in terms of skills and competencies, thereby facilitating a career change regardless of their initial specialization.

The first cycle is the most selective training. During the first two years, the exams are very difficult to test whether the student is actually able to continue his engineering studies.

  • Engineering cycle (3 years)

At the end of the second year of study, engineering students choose a specialty among the six offered by the school, the award of specialty choices is ranked by students' merits
