The British University in Egypt has signed a strategic Academic and Research Collaboration Agreement with the University of Leeds, marking a significant step in expanding international academic partnerships.
The agreement builds on the successful collaboration between the Faculties of Dentistry at both institutions, which, together with partner universities in Brazil and Egypt, co-developed an international Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) and Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) programme on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). This successful initiative laid the foundation for a broader university-wide partnership that will foster student opportunities, collaborative research, faculty exchange, joint academic programmes, and the sharing of knowledge and expertise.
Signed by Professor Mohamed Loutfi MBE, President and Vice-Chancellor of The British University in Egypt, and Professor Hai Sui Yu, Provost and Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University of Leeds, the partnership reflects a shared commitment to advancing excellence in education, research, innovation, and global engagement.
