After that, the Faculty of Engineering was established in 1981. In 1983, a presidential decree was issued declaring the Fayoum branch as an independent Cairo University branch. Finally, the Fayoum people's dream came true by issuing the presidential decree N. 84 dated in 2005 to establish Fayoum University. Then, the presidential decree N.193 dated in 2005 was issued to establish faculties of Medicine and Archeology. Both decrees were crowned with the appointment of Prof. Galal M.
