Sinai University was established refereeing to the presidential decree number 363 for the year 2005 in accordance to provisions of law number 101 the year 1992 regarding the private Universities, which was replaced by law number 12 the year 2009 regarding the private and civil Universities and its executive regulations issued by the presidential decree number 302 for the year 2010. The significance of establishing a university, including research centers, especially in the North of Sinai, is not only due to the lack of such universities in this area but also to the particular importance of having a world-class education to support the economic development of the region and to tie the Egyptian economy to the changes and transformation of the international economic system in the 21st century. Specialized high institutes are also needed; hence many countries tended to set up more universities, academies, institutes, and cities. The idea is to increase the flexibility in different economic sectors by securing a base of specialists who constitute the real starting point for economic growth. This fact does not negate the risk of establishing this University in Sinai, which represents a real challenge for national participation in this region's development. The University aspires to be one of the pioneering Universities from local, regional, and international perspectives, introducing educational and research specific services for the local and regional community. We intend to provide our students with the best education practical experience from beginning to end, with smart, sophisticated equipment to deliver glowing, well-educated graduates.

Sinai University shall fulfill its role in achieving balance to the other side of the equation. The human factor- building the type of graduate that opens up to the latest scientific trends yet maintains their roots and traditions. Sinai's treasures of raw material and vast fertile land- combined with its geographical ingenuity as a global trading center in the Middle East's heart and overlooking the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal lure numerous scientists to attempt to create a tremendous industrial and agricultural revolution. Sinai has witnessed, since the dawn of history, only the wheels of wars and the weapons of destruction is in dire need of a development engine to contribute to reformulating and restructuring life upon this virgin land. With its own distinguished and specialized nature, Sinai University has emerged that made it different in its perception and profile from the traditional academic concepts and policies.

As a public institution under the French Ministry of Agriculture's authority, Bordeaux Sciences Agro collaborates with other similar institutions in France and abroad through a network of higher agronomic institutes, notably in the framework of joint courses. For 50 years, Bordeaux Sciences Agro has been able to forge privileged relationships with companies. These ties supplement our institution's courses by helping increase the professionalism of the subjects taught and by fostering the graduates' professional futures by ensuring that the courses are suited to the real world. Bordeaux Sciences Agro is a public higher education institute and agronomic research facility under the French Ministry of Agriculture, Agrifood and Forestry. Founded in 1962, it trains 600 students every year who follow Agronomy degree courses in their initial education as students or apprentices, or one of the six Master's degrees co-accredited by universities in Bordeaux or by national partners, and in the specialized Master's degree accredited by the 'Conférence des Grandes Ecoles.' The establishment was created under the name of 'ENITA de Bordeaux.' A higher education establishment offered intermediary 3-year Agronomy degrees after a specific preparatory course dispensed in agricultural secondary schools. It did not have a research vocation. This is a plus for the estate, which benefits from being in the school's cutting-edge scientific environment. In particular, Bordeaux Sciences Agro aims to make this urban vineyard into a showcase for best practices in economically efficient and environmentally friendly wine growing. The entire Bordeaux Sciences Agro scientific community contributes to the 'Luchey Agro-ecologic Project.' Fifty years after it was founded, ENITA de Bordeaux changed its name to become 'Bordeaux Sciences Agro.' This name change was part of a progressive coming together of national engineering trades schools (ENITs) and the former national higher agronomy schools (ENSAs). The separation between these two groups of schools had progressively been narrowing since the 1990s with creating a common competitive exam for schools of agronomy and the creation of a single body of professors and researchers. A new position, new impetus, and new brand name! Opening of international courses with the Creation of the Master of Business and Sciences in Vineyard and Winery Management. The Schools of Engineering's International Masters degree is taught entirely in English and is a response to Bordeaux Sciences Agro's strategic decision to increase its international appeal in one of the fields of excellence for which the Bordeaux site is a global reference. This MBS aims to offer original courses in response to demand from the wine sector for wine estate managers abroad, against a backdrop of the strong global growth of the sector with the arrival on the wine market of new countries with very high potential in production, consumption, and investment (China, India, Russia, etc.). The plans to create the 'school forest' on the Agreaux estate are being conducted jointly by the Jacques and Françoise Lescouzères Foundation, under the aegis of the Institut de France, and by Bordeaux Sciences Agro in partnership with the members of the Training Platform. This concept corresponds to a model that is currently on the rise internationally. It consists of providing teaching and research projects in real-life conditions on a forest estate. Bordeaux Sciences Agro works with 40 permanent teaching staff, including 15 professors, experts in several domains: Agronomy, Animal Sciences, Biology, Economics, Ecology, Botanical Sciences, Viticulture, Oenology, Forestry, Processing Engineering, Environment Engineering, Management. Professors carry out academic teaching missions as well as research and knowledge transfer activities. Each professor is a member of one of the 14 Joint Research Units and belongs to one of the six Research & Academic Training Departments. You will complete your enrolment at the 'Direction des Etudes' office (the Department of Academic Studies) when you arrive. You will then be provided with your student ID card, enrolment certificate, and internet access codes. When you arrive at the University, you will receive your Aquipass card. This is your student passport. It is your source of ID and will allow you to use the many services on offer: checking out books at the library, eating at the university restaurants, etc. The electronic card system also allows you to make individual purchases.

The "National Graduate School of Engineering Chemistry of Lille" (École Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Lille, ENSCL) was founded in 1894 as the "Institut de Chimie de la Faculté des Sciences de Lille." It is a public institution of higher learning supervised by the Ministry of National Education and Research and authorized to award the ENSCL MSc in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering recognized by the French Engineering Accreditation Commission upon completing the curriculum. ENSCL is a member of the Gay-Lussac Federation that regroups 20 Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Schools. Like in every French Engineering School, the program's duration is three years, after 2 or 3 years of preparation (intensive undergraduate preparatory program in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. On behalf of everyone at the International Relations Office, I would like to welcome you to the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Lille (ENSCL). Studying abroad is an exciting adventure, an opportunity to discover a new culture, and a great way to learn more about yourself in the process. However, living in a foreign environment, you may encounter unfamiliar challenges and, at times, feel lost and frustrated. Our office is full of essential information on campus life, Lille, and France in general. We look forward to providing services, resources, and programs that will enhance your experience at the ENSCL and during your stay. We invite you to make the International Office your "home away from home" and hope that you will drop by often for advice, information, and social events. Students gradually learn about future professions through economic sciences and management, conferences, and plant visits. They complete an engineering project at the end of their studies, most often in an industrial setting. During the first year (semesters S5-S6), students consolidate their fundamental knowledge in the essential practices of chemistry, physical chemistry, kinetics, thermodynamics, analytical chemistry, and inorganic and organic chemistry. The second-year (semesters S7-S8) focuses on the applied aspects of chemistry: organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, solid-state chemistry, materials science, and chemical engineering. Practicals, some of which are genuine mini-projects, allow students to familiarise themselves with the "scientific method" and learn to take the initiative. For semester S8, Students choose one of the following three fields of study: "Biomass", "Chemical specialties and formulation," or "Materials science". A third-year abroad is not only offered but encouraged. In this regard, ENSCL has established many relationships with institutions in the European Union (LEONARDO programs) and the rest of the world. International students are also much appreciated within the engineering program (see international students). Physical education is obligatory in the first year of the engineering program.
