Abstract: This paper aims to assess the impact of industrial policy instruments on international competitiveness and in particular on the competitiveness of the manufacturing sector in Tunisia. From a non-stationary panel model made up of 13 Tunisian manufacturing sectors during the period 1995-2016, we show the existence of a long-term cointegration relationship between manufacturing exports and its determinants. The results show that spending on research and development and tertiary education has a favorable effect on exports, hence the need for public authorities to intervene within the framework of industrial policy to promote technological innovation and Higher Education. Keywords: Competitiveness, industrial policy, manufacturing sector, Research and development, higher education.
