 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per WP:MILL and WP:NOTWEBHOST - it's a test prep course of a university. 00:27, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep It's not a test prep course of a university, it's an national institute of engineering cycles (2 years), part of the Sfax university (in an national administrative matter, the university runs multiple faculties, institutes, schools and other universities.) The policy is different from other countries. And the students will complete their cycle in any national or international engineering school. The article already include sources from national and regional independent media coverage (not tribal mentions), also the coverage would mostly be in different foreign languages other than english.

 * Merge - this single department should be merged with the main page. Bearian (talk) 15:35, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your understanding, i don't mind if the article can be well merged with the main article too, but as quoated the WP:NFACULTY " If some faculties or academic colleges have significance and others do not, it may be the case that the institution's academic programs as a whole are notable.", well people always get confused about this : it's a whole different policies and education system in Tunisia as well as using different technical words, the University of Sfax and other exact similar universities in Tunisia was made to facilitate and orginize the paper works with the Ministries, dependings of each governorate (see  Governorates of Tunisia). For example : most of the higher education institutions and faculties which are  now runs under the University of Sfax are already older  and was built as an university establishment (and still) and have even more significant history, which doesn't make sens to call it a department.  My fear is that merging a lot of articles will make it a bit too long to read in the future. I hope that this topic will be discussed further more in Wikiproject Tunisia. Thanks again.--Metalmed (talk) 19:26, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep - Seems to make sense that the "university" mainly exists for bureaucratic oversight by government, as its institutes predate its establishment: medicine '74, engineering '83, university '86. Also the institutes seem more connected with other instititutes of the same specialty across the country, rather than with their respective nominal universities.--89.206.114.25 (talk) 23:54, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
