The Rabat School of Mines is celebrating its 50^th anniversary in 2022.

Over these five decades of achievement, the institution has accumulated a wide range of experiences and undergone many substantial changes, while remaining dynamic, diverse and curious. Marked by its successfulness in research, teaching and knowledge transfer, the School of Mines has emerged as a well-known entity in the educational landscape. It plays a leading role in several fields. Founded as a “Mining Engineering School”, it has taken a unique educational pathway to reach its present status as a well-recognized institution of higher Education.

The official ceremony commemorating the anniversary will be held on December 17th on the main Campus in Rabat Agdal.
