University of Adrar

The African University Ahmed Draia of Adrar (Arabic: الجامعة الأفريقية‎) is a university, located in Adrar in the south west of Algeria. The name The African University was given to it since the beginning because its researchers and laboratories are specialized in African studies and many of its students come from various African countries, but recently, it has been added the name of the martyr Ahmed Draïa (Arabic: دراية أحمد ‎) because he is a national symbol who fought in the Algerian War of Independence[1]. The African University has mainly five faculties; Faculty of Science and Technology, the Faculty of Economics, Commerce and Management, the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Islamic Sciences, the Faculty of Letters and Languages and the Faculty Law and Political Sciences.

The first institute to be established in The African University was established as early as 1986. It was The National High Institute of Sharia.

Today, the African University has multiple laboratories, ranging from The Algerian-African Economic Integration Laboratory, Laboratory of Sustainable Development and Data Processing, Laboratory of Algerian Manuscripts in Africa, Laboratory of Law and Society, Laboratory of Energy, Environment and Data Processing and The Laboratory of the African Studies of Humanities and Social Sciences. These laboratories were established by many remarkable professors, considering the fact that, for some reason, the Algerian professors with the highest ranks, after almost thirty years of working in the North and just before retirement, move to teach in the town of Adrar at The African University.
