Clean Up and Build Up: Architecture Students Design Sustainable Solutions for a Greener Cairo
Students engage hands-on with local community of fishermen and farmers at Qursaya Island.
Civic Engagement
What sets our Architecture Department apart is our commitment to fostering a collaborative and inclusive learning environment. We believe that the best ideas are born from diverse perspectives, and we encourage our students to explore their unique creative vision.
At the Department of Architecture, we aim to equip student architects with a comprehensive vision integrating various aspects of the built environment: how it is planned, designed, used and appreciated by society; and to prepare students for starting a successful professional and academic career as architects. Our faculty members, who are accomplished professionals in the field, are dedicated to guiding and supporting students in their creative endeavors.
