A1 Ouzi, Ahmed. AB Many universities are looking into new ways of increasing their income in order to cover part of their expenditures. As a result, some universities have entered into academic partnership and cooperation agreements with various bodies involved in education and training.This paper considers the case of the University Mohammed V Souissi in Morocco, a newly established University that has entered into partnerships and cooperation arrangements with numerous universities, organizations and sectors, both at home and abroad. Such partnerships and arrangements have helped the University to achieve many goals related to the development of pedagogic modalities and methods. They have also helped to open the university to the community, through links with various sectors of society, ensuring that its graduates have an appropriate profile, in return for financial aid to finance their education. This has enabled, the University to run new professional, industrial, social, educational and cultural specialization programs in its various faculties and institutes. Additionally, the paper provides some insights into what partnership and cooperation agreements could contribute to opening new advanced horizons for higher education in Arab countries.
