Résumé


This article deals with the conclusions of a research work dedicated to the "Entrepreneurial University in Morocco". This is a proposal for a Moroccan concept inspired by a model that has imposed itself in international literature since the publication by the American sociologist Burton R. Clark of a series of works related to introduction of the spirit of enterprise in the university (Creating Entrepreneurial Universities, 1998; Sustaining Changes in Universities, 2004). This article is an exploratory synthesis of Moroccan public higher education. Presented in the form of a diagnostic, it explains the GAP and the obstacles that exist between the concept and the reality of Moroccan public universities. To assess and quantify the degree of entrepreneurial connection between the concept and the reality of the Moroccan field, an exploratory empirical study in the form of a series of interviews was made with managers and professors in several universities. It allows us to formulate recommendations relating to a transformation process that is in relation with the internal university organization, but also with an ecosystemics relationships that the university must develop with its environment stackholders. The “governance” and “change management” components would be keys to the massification of the UNIVERSITY ENTERPRISE in Morocco.
