Ain Shams University, represented by the Education and Student Affairs Sector, is participating as an official sponsor in the 18th edition of the International Forum and Exhibition for Higher Education and Training “EduGate 2025,” which kicked off today, December 2, and runs until December 4, under the theme: “Fifth-Generation Universities and Quality Requirements in the Era of Artificial Intelligence.” The event is held under the patronage of Dr. Ayman Ashour, Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research; Dr. Amr Talaat, Minister of Communications and Information Technology; and Dr. Amr Ezzat Salama, Secretary-General of the Association of Arab Universities, with extensive local and international participation.

The participation of Ain Shams University in the forum comes under the patronage of Prof. Mohamed Diaa Zain El-Abedeen, President of the University, and Professor Dr. Rami Maher Ghali, Vice President for Education and Student Affairs.
The event is supervised by Mr. Mohamed El-Gammal, Head of the Central Administration of the University President’s Office; Mr. Ibrahim Saeed Hamza, Assistant Secretary-General for Education and Student Affairs; Dr. Dalia Youssef, Director of the Central E-Learning Unit; and Dr. Reham El-Otifi, General Director of the Education and Student Affairs Administration.

During his tour of Ain Shams University's pavilion, Prof. Rami Maher Ghali emphasized that the university’s continued participation in “EduGate” reflects its commitment to providing an educational system aligned with the latest global developments across diverse programs and specializations. The university’s participation represents an opportunity to enhance communication with high school students by introducing them to its wide range of programs and the academic pathways directly linked to labor market needs at both the regional and international levels.
This participation also helps guide students during their university major selection process, providing them with the necessary information and counseling to make informed decisions about their educational future.

This event is considered one of the most prominent educational platforms in the region, bringing together leading universities, academic institutions, and educational service providers under one roof, along with thousands of students eager to explore modern trends in education and training. It creates a rich environment for exchanging experiences and ideas that contribute to improving the quality of education locally and internationally.

Prof. Rami Maher Ghali explained that the university is showcasing a wide array of modern and distinguished programs across various fields (medical programs – engineering and IT programs – business programs – languages and translation programs – scientific programs, etc.). These programs comply with international standards and meet labor market needs locally, regionally, and globally. They offer advanced education in non-traditional specializations through an innovative academic system designed to prepare highly qualified graduates. The pavilion also highlights postgraduate programs, language programs, and services tailored for students of determination.

These programs represent a pioneering model for the development of the educational process and enhancement of university financial resources, as they are fundamentally based on the standards of the National Authority for Quality Assurance and Accreditation of Education. He added that the new distinguished programs provide students with a unique educational experience combining academic content with training and practical application. Some programs offer dual degrees, one from Ain Shams University and the other from international partner universities, while others allow students to integrate multiple specializations within their chosen field, with a particular emphasis on practical components over theoretical ones to ensure high-quality outcomes aligned with labor market demands.

These programs are delivered in classrooms equipped with state-of-the-art technology, and students wishing to join them must pass designated admission tests or achieve specific grades in qualifying subjects due to the high demand.

Ain Shams University’s pavilion has witnessed a remarkable turnout since the forum’s opening. The pavilion was visited by Prof. Ali Shams El-Din, former President of Benha University and President of the Forum, along with several university leaders and former ministers. The pavilion offers visitors a comprehensive overview of the university’s colleges and programs through a specialized team providing guidance and essential information, helping prospective students and their families gain a clear understanding of study pathways and the advantages of each specialization according to their interests.

Visitors also can watch an audiovisual film featuring the university’s history, prominent programs, specializations, student life, and accommodation facilities—all of which have been recently upgraded in line with the latest international standards to ensure a distinguished educational experience that keeps pace with global developments in higher education and scientific research.
