Batna 2 University

The University of Batna 2 (Mostefa Ben Boulaïd[2]) (Arabic: جامعة باتنة 2 مصطفى بن بولعيد) is a non-profit Algerian public University[3] located in Fesdis,[4] Wilaya of Batna in Algeria. It was founded in 1977 as University of Batna[5] and then restructured[6] in July 2015 by presidential decree,[7] which led to a split into two distinct universities,[6] namely University of Batna 1 and University of Batna 2. On 4 February 2017, the university was named after the Algerian national Hero Mostefa Ben Boulaïd. Also called the father of the Algerian revolution[8] whose centenary[9] celebration was held in the city of Batna. Now UB2 University Mostefa Ben Boulaïd is one of the largest Universities[10] in Algeria and Africa with its (33.458)[11] enrolled students and (1,833)[11] staff members. Under the authority of the vice-chancellor Dr. Tayeb Bouzid, the university comprises a general management office, four vice-rectorates, five faculties, three institutes, and a central library.
