A delegation of senior US university administrators arrived to Egypt to meet officials at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to discuss the establishment of international branch campuses in Egypt, an integral part of the government's educational reform initiatives.

During their week-long program, the delegates from selected U.S. universities will meet with Egyptian government and university officials from both public and private universities, to explore the higher education landscape in Egypt and discuss the many opportunities for partnership.

According to an official statement by the U.S. Embassy, the university tour will serve as a catalyst for international partnerships between Egypt and the U.S. in academia and research, present a valuable networking opportunity for interested universities and foster dialogue with key players in the higher education landscape in Egypt.  The program will culminate in a summit on Partnerships in Higher Education, to be held on Thursday.
