University History: –

 

On July 15, 2006, Republican Decree No. 252 was passed, whereby Pharos University in Alexandria (PUA) was established with seven faculties. However, on August 31, 2009, Republican Decree No. 302 was issued, adding four additional faculties to the university. Once again, on November 25, 2020, Republican Decree No. 659 was issued adding one more faculty. Accordingly, PUA obtained a permit from the Council of Private and Private Universities to start providing education in twelve faculties.

The University of Pharos was established in accordance with the latest internationally acknowledged standards and parameters regarding higher education quality, and is Supported with advanced, highly equipped scientific laboratories.

The University has signed a series of cooperation agreements with a number of European and American universities  (euro-mediterranean universities union) in order to benefit from their advanced modern teaching methodologies and sustainable development in the various fields of science, as well as the application of international quality systems. In accordance with that, many student and faculty staff member exchange programs are organized between PUA and other universities in order to take advantage of the expertise of those universities and achieve further development.
