In collaboration with Dr. Glenn Hutchinson, Director of the Center for Excellence in Writing (CEW) at FIU, Dr. Lakhdar Boukerrou, Director of International Programs and Global Initiatives at the College of Engineering and Computing, established the Center for Excellence in Writing at the University of Constantine 3 Salah Boubnider (UC3). The Center was made possible by the great collaboration with a very dynamic team from UC3 under the leadership of the Rector, Prof Ahmed Bouras, and his team led by Prof Karima Benmohamed, Vice Rector in Charge of Post-Graduation.
The Center’s mission is to “assist faculty and students in all stages of the writing process through face-to-face and online consultations, workshops, and trainings.” The Center, the first of its kind in North Africa, is staffed with a very dynamic group of faculty and students under the joint leadership of Dean Malika Frimeche and Mr. Mouhieddine Kherouatou. The Center was officially launched by the Algerian Minister of Higher education and Scientific Research on December 8, 2022. The UC3 CEW team is working very closely with the FIU CEW team led by Dr. Hutchinson. For more details about the UC3 CEW please visit https://univ-constantine3.dz/en/writing-centre-of-excellence/
The University of Constantine 3 is one of FIU’s partners in Algeria.
