Department of Computer Science and Engineering

About the Computer Science and Engineering Department

The Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) Department is dedicated to advancing knowledge in computing while educating the next generation of technology innovators. Our programs provide a comprehensive and rigorous education spanning both computer science and computer engineering, combining strong theoretical foundations with practical design and implementation skills. Faculty and students in the department engage in teaching, research, and innovation across a wide range of areas, including software engineering, embedded systems, distributed and cloud computing, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence. Through research collaborations, industry partnerships, and experiential learning opportunities, students gain exposure to real-world challenges and emerging technologies. As Egypt’s technology ecosystem continues to expand and integrate with the global digital economy, the need for highly trained computing professionals continues to grow. In response to this demand, and following a comprehensive feasibility study, the department established its Master of Science program in Computer Science in 1995, providing a platform for advanced study and research in a rapidly evolving discipline. Today, the CSE Department continues to play a vital role in advancing computing education, fostering innovation, and supporting the development of the regional and global technology ecosystem.
