The city of Benguérir will host a new 1337 campus next month in partnership between the OCP Group and 42 Paris, just a few months after the opening of the school in Khouribga.

This new campus will give, explains the OCP in a press release, additional prospects for young Moroccans and sub-Saharan Africans "to evolve in an environment conducive to innovation and Peer Learning for future-oriented professions".

It is spread over a total area of 3,000 m2, divided into 4 levels and equipped with 2 clusters of more than 600 m2, which are equipped with 300 latest generation iMACs, all connected to a dedicated line and very high capacity storage servers, specifies the press release which reviews the success of the Khouribga campus which currently hosts 300 young people and 5,000 eligible.

The campus also has recreation areas and meeting rooms as well as "various equipment offering students a relaxation bubble in the torrent of code they face for hours on end".

To recall, this school offers training focused on the most modern techniques of computer programming and information technology.
