Cairo’s ancient history has been preserved through its semi-walled medieval city, historical mosques and the Pyramids of Giza. Students can take a trip to Cairo to explore its ancient remnants, some of which date back to 130 CE. The university’s campus consists of four educational buildings, male and female accommodation, an administrative building, and a central library. There is also a teaching and therapeutic hospital equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. The hospital has a capacity of 320 beds and offers medical care services to the community, which includes coronary artery care, kidney transplantation, and open-heart surgery. The university has 13 undergraduate faculties that provide specialised education in the humanities, medical, and technological fields. These faculties include dentistry, economics and management, medicine and surgery, and pharmacy among others. The university also offers postgraduate courses in collaboration with other universities around the country. The student body is comprised of approximately 1,500 international students representing more than 30 nationalities between them. This is owning to the university’s collaborative partnerships with many Egyptian and foreign academic institutions.
