On this page, you will learn the names of 35 academic disciplines in Moroccan Arabic.
Academic disciplines in Morocco are usually called based on their language of instruction.
If the discipline is taught in Arabic, then it keeps its name in Modern Standard Arabic, with a slight Moroccan pronunciation.
If the discipline is taught in French (e.g. math and physics), then it’s referred to by its French name.
