Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education Officials Visit NUCB to Learn About Japanese Higher Education

On May 26, 2026, ten officials from the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education visited NUCB. The officials plan to spend two to three weeks in Japan to study the Japanese higher education system, university management, and educational methods. This training was made possible through Professor Kenji Yokoyama of the NUCB Business School, who was involved in the establishment of the Egypt-Japan University of Science and Technology (E-JUST). E-JUST is known as an international university incorporating the Japanese educational system and is one of the projects symbolizing academic exchange between Japan and Egypt.

On the day of the visit, Professor Yokoyama explained the university's educational policy, case method classes, and international exchange programs, followed by a campus tour. An exchange session with students from E-JUST currently studying at NUCB was also held, where students shared their experiences regarding the learning environment in Japan, student life, and cross-cultural experiences. Participants asked many questions, making it a valuable opportunity to deepen their understanding of Japanese university education.
