In other words: the return to a 4-year training, as was the case before. And this, before the adoption of the LMD system. As a reminder, this system stipulates that the student must pursue a 3-year course to obtain his diploma.
The same official mentioned a number of suggestions for reforming the LMD system. In particular, the reform which would affect the training period.

Boukezzata also shared the objectives and ambitions that the MESRS services aim to achieve. “We aim to make the university today a university of citizenship which responds to the concerns of its environment”, affirms the same speaker.
