University of Science and Technology, Houari Boumediene
University of Science and Technology, Houari Boumediene, Public university campus in Bab Ezzouar, Algeria.
The University of Science and Technology Houari Boumediene contains eight specialized faculties across a 105-acre site designed with modernist architectural elements.
Founded in 1974, the university emerged when the Faculty of Sciences from the University of Algiers relocated to its current location 15 kilometers east of Algiers.
The institution maintains 53 research laboratories and offers programs in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, computer science, and multiple engineering disciplines.
French serves as the primary language of instruction for most courses, while geography programs operate exclusively in Arabic to accommodate different student needs.
Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer designed the campus during his exile period in Algeria, incorporating his signature curved forms into the educational complex.
