The Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy in Casablanca, belonging to Hassan II University, has recently been home to Morocco’s third edition of the HSK Exhibition for Studies and Job Opportunities in China, which brought into focus academic and professional prospects from the Asian nation.
The event, which took place was organized by Hankou International Center, together with Hassan II University and its Confucius Institute, to further expand academic, scientific, and professional exchanges between Morocco and China. Approximately 40 Chinese universities and about ten companies working in Morocco participated therein, providing visitors with an opportunity to explore scholarships, higher education opportunities, and possible career pathways abroad.
The exhibition gave an excellent opportunity for Moroccan students and visitors to have first-hand discussions with representatives from prestigious Chinese academic institutions, explaining in great detail application procedures, scholarships, and available programs. Additionally, Chinese companies working in Morocco displayed the job opportunities available in various fields, handing practical information to students to better position them in international careers. The event reflected greater integration of Moroccan talent into international academia and professional networks, particularly those linked to China.
The Chinese Ambassador to Morocco, Yu Jingsong, praised the organization of this exhibition for illustrating the evolving cooperation between the two countries in higher education, training, and cultural exchange. She noted that the strong participation of several Chinese institutions and companies in Morocco illustrates the strength of bilateral relations and reiterated China's readiness to welcome Moroccan students to its universities and institutes throughout the country.

The President of Hassan II University, Hussein Azdouk, did not hesitate to praise the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy in Casablanca for hosting this exhibition, maintaining that it befits the university's strategy of enhancing cooperation with Chinese institutions. He emphasized that the event, staged for the second year consecutively, attested to the depth of partnership between universities in Morocco and China. Azdouk revealed that last November, the Confucius Institute of the university had received in Beijing a prize titled 'Exceptional Partner of HSK Exhibition 2025' because of its activity related to promoting the Chinese language and organizing the HSK/Chinese Proficiency Test in Morocco.
Representatives of participating Chinese universities pointed out the sharp increase in the number of Moroccan students studying at Chinese universities in recent years. They underlined the fact that the exhibition was an excellent occasion for students to find detailed information about curricula, admission procedures, and scholarships that would enable them to make a conscious choice regarding higher education abroad. The event has strengthened the key contribution of Hassan II University and its Confucius Institute to continued academic and scientific cooperation between Morocco and China, with cross-cultural education being increasingly instrumental to developing long-term involvement between the two nations.
