At Egypt NEGMA - Video

An Informative Video About NEGMA (Video in English)

NEGMA was established after the January 25th Uprising, when a group of seven Egyptian-American and Egyptian professionals from the Harvard and MIT community got together and asked the simple question: What can we do to move ideas to action on the ground, for a brighter future for Egypt?  As we thought about the social and economic needs on the ground in Egypt, we realized the need for an organization that supports innovation in order to help spur job creation and create a social impact.  The founders did not want to focus exclusively on any one particular sector or industry, but rather to promote innovative and entrepreneurial projects that respond to broad social and economic needs in Egypt.  

The NEGMA Conference, and later NEGMA, Inc., became an outgrowth of this initiative.

Secondary Education

Compulsory education lasts for eight grades and is known as "basic education", split into two stages, primary school (Grades 1 - 5) and preparatory school (Grades 6 - 8). It leads to the award of the Basic Education Completion Certificate. Following the eight-year basic education, pupils have the choice of entering a general secondary school (academic option) or a technical option including three- and five-year technical schools as well as experimental schools teaching languages, education and physical education. Only general secondary school graduates (academic option) may be admitted to university after obtaining their General Secondary Education Certificate (GSEC) or an Advanced Technical Diploma with scores above 75%. However, since 1991, some graduates from technical schools have been allowed to enter higher education.

Higher Education

Higher education is provided by some 20 universities and by higher institutes of technical and professional training, both public and private.

Responsibility for higher education lies mainly with the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research. Organization and administration, as well as academic programmes, are determined by laws, decrees and government regulations.

The State universities are under the authority of the Supreme Council of Universities. Universities have full academic and administrative autonomy. They also carry out scientific research. The higher institutes of professional and technical training award qualifications equivalent to the first qualification conferred by the universities.

Open college education was introduced at the universities of Cairo, Alexandria and Assiut in 1991.

Private universities are entitled to implement their own criteria of admission and to set fees without intervention from the Ministry.
