Zagazig University

Zagazig University is one of the Egyptian universities that was established to contribute side-by-side with its counterparts in Egypt's renaissance and to raise its position. The University started as a branch of Ain Shams University in the academic year 1969/1970. Zagazig University is the seventh University in Egypt in terms of its inception. The University has made great strides in all areas, keeping up with the modern age. The University has chosen the image of the great national leader / Ahmed Orabi, son of Sharqi, as its slogan. He stood lofty in front of the brutal colonization calling for the freedom of our dear Egypt. Law No. 18 was issued on 14/4/1974 to establish Zagazig University, which was composed of six colleges as a branch of Ain Shams University. Those are the colleges of agriculture, trade, veterinary medicine, human medicine, education, and science.
The University plans in the future expansions to have a branch in the 10th of Ramadan City to ensure the maintenance of the green areas and to serve the community of businessmen and the growth of the industrial activities in that city.
