Research Centre in Management
CERGI
It is a hosting and material support structure for the research projects of professors and researchers from the Management department (LAREM) or the Finance department (LAREF), for which it serves as a mandatory gateway, particularly for those preparing their habilitation.
- To constitute a Centre for Studies and Research in Management at ISCAE, whose primary mission is to promote applied research
- To benefit from the continuity necessary to fulfil its missions
- Promote research within ISCAE Group
- Bring together research work and provide a meeting space for researchers
- Create the synergies necessary for publications that enhance the scientific standing of the institution
The CERGI is managed by the Group's Director of Research, assisted by the Centre's Council and an administrative officer.
Each research structure is represented, managed and coordinated by a head. The research structures are composed primarily of permanent researchers. They are secondarily composed of temporary members (Moroccan or foreign associate researchers, doctoral students) and research assistants (distinguished students from the Normal Cycle).
The CERGI prioritises applied research, publishes research papers, organises internal/external seminars and conferences. The CERGI summarises its activities in a periodic newsletter as well as in an annual report.
LAREM — Laboratory for Research in Management
The Laboratory for Research in Management (LAREM), under the CERGI, aims to bring together and promote the development of research in areas related to the management of private and public enterprises.
It brings together professors and doctoral students currently working on their theses. It is open to researchers whose research topics are consistent with the concerns of the Laboratory for Research in Management.
- Strategic management
- Marketing and communication
- Human resource management
- Business organisation

- Specialised Master's in purchasing and logistics
Its vocation is therefore to welcome students holding the Master's degree from the Grande École of ISCAE Group or an equivalent qualification, admitted after passing the entrance examination, upon submission of a project and with the agreement of a research supervisor, to prepare a thesis. These students may be, depending on the nature of their project, associated with one of the research programmes it implements.
- Teaching staff: with effective involvement of professors preparing their habilitation to supervise research
- Doctoral students: associated by teaching staff with educational activities. Currently, 34 doctoral students are preparing their thesis at LAREM.
- Associate researchers: to ensure the laboratory's openness to external institutions
- Students: associated in the context of surveys or analyses related to the Grande École's courses
- A laboratory head: to be determined
- An assistant for administrative management: one assistant for both LAREM and LAREF
- A room for meetings and seminars
- A budget (funding for scientific communications and conferences)
- A monthly seminar on a theme related to the laboratory's areas of interest (coordinated with seminars already scheduled for doctoral students)
- Occasional meetings based on the needs of researchers
LAREF — Laboratory for Research in Finance
The Laboratory for Research in Finance (LAREF), under the CERGI, aims to bring together and promote the development of research in areas related to finance.

The SME CHAIR
The creation of a chair aims to improve, advance and disseminate knowledge in particular areas of research and teaching, areas that prove consistent with the mission, vision and strategic objectives of ISCAE Group.
The creation of a chair is the prerogative of a Scientific Committee established for this purpose. This Committee is composed of:
- the Director of ISCAE Group acting as president
- the Director of Research
- the Deputy Director for Academic Affairs
- a chair head from the group
A proposal to create a chair must be submitted to the Scientific Committee and may be submitted by one or more internal parties (professor, department, directors, etc.) or external parties (potential partner, centre or institute, etc.). Such a proposal should provide all the essential information needed for its assessment (chair objectives, link to the group's strategy, planned activities, secured or potential funding sources, strategy for attracting and retaining researchers, etc.).
- to recognise, support and retain ISCAE Group professors whose quantity and quality of achievements in research and teaching are clearly considered to be of "high calibre" by their peers and the academic community
- to attract highly recognised and eminent professors to ISCAE in order to ensure that particular areas of research and teaching become strategic assets for the School
