The Faculty of Governance, Economics and Social Sciences of the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University offers a program that aims at producing highly qualified professionals in social sciences (sociology, political science, or anthropology) or in behavioral sciences (psychology) to reflect on issues related to public policies in Morocco and Africa. This program is designed to equip students with strong interdisciplinary skills for developing innovative and effective research. After a pre-doctoral year intended to strengthen methodological capacities in various areas of behavioral and social sciences, the students selected have three years to prepare their thesis. The program aims to train top-level researchers and decision-makers, capable of addressing development challenges across the African continent.
