“…In Morocco, engineering education is a pillar of economic growth [1], particularly since the launch of the "10,000 Engineers per Year" initiative in 2007. This initiative aimed to meet the growing demand for qualified engineers in the labor market and significantly increase the number of trained engineers in Morocco.…”

This study aims to study the benefits of lean approach implementation in engineering education in Morocco by using three concrete case studies to present a comparative analysis between situations with and without Lean approach deployment. The first project focuses on improving internet access. The second project aims to improve the conduct of practicum sessions. The third project aims to identify and improve the performance of the processes implemented in the student affairs department. In this research study, deductive methodology is followed, also called the "hypothetical-deductive approach", First, we presented a synthetic analysis of Lean implementation studies existing in the literature between 2000-2023, then we presented three Lean implementation projects in the engineering school in Morocco. This research work allowed us to present, with concrete cases, the contribution of the approach to engineering education in Morocco, whether it is in the teaching processes or in the support and management processes within an engineering school. The involvement and sensibilization of the resources represent key success factors of this Lean transformation. This research work can serve as a baseline reference for other Lean implementation initiatives in the field of education in Morocco. On the one hand, while examining the literature, we found a scarcity of studies that have presented a comparison between the situation without and with the Lean approach. On the other hand, the Lean approach is a new concept that has never been discussed concretely in the context of Moroccan engineering; the present research fills that gap.

“…While the substantial contribution of higher education to economic growth is confirmed by many publications (Boţoroga et al, 2022;Gruševá and Blašková, 2022;Zhang and Liu, 2022;Almutairi, 2023;Fahim et al, 2023;Li and Wye, 2023), which, in particular, are based on the experience of modern Russia (Agasisti et al, 2021;Gruzina et al, 2022;Krupnov et al, 2023), there is still uncertainty as to cause-and-effect links between university organization and management and their results, which accelerate economic growth; they include educational activities (quality), scientific activities (quality and effectiveness), scientometrics (citations), profitability (effectiveness), and international activities (globalization).…”

Perspectives of using the integration mechanisms of education’s development for accelerating Russia’s economic growth

et al. 2023

The article aims at selecting the most perspective mechanisms and finding the perspectives of using the integration mechanisms of education development for accelerating Russia’s economic growth. The methods of correlation and regression analysis are used. It is proved – by the example of top universities in Russia in 2020 – that the development of higher education and maximization of its contribution to the acceleration of economic growth could be achieved based on the integration mechanisms with the participation of universities. It is determined that optimization should be applied to educational (quality of higher education), scientific (R&D), and international (globalization) activities of universities, which could reach its maximum in case of an increase in the number of incubators in each university up to 5 units, number of centers of shared use of scientific equipment up to 40 units, and number of small companies up to 41. It is determined that citations and profitability (effectiveness) of universities do not depend on integration mechanisms in higher education. Such integration mechanisms as employer-sponsored education, practice bases, and technological parks do not contribute to the improvement of the indicators of universities’ activities and thus their development is inexpedient. The practical significance of the authors’ conclusions and recommendations is that they allow raising the effectiveness of university management and optimizing the organizational and managerial conditions under which the potential of universities in the sphere of support for the implementation of the social and investment model of economic growth is unlocked in the most comprehensive way.
