    FB Event for Updates (http://goo.gl/rvABk) Instructed by Prof. Moustafa Youssef (http://goo.gl/FctwE). Research is a mustering power of change in the world we live in. Continually and for ages, research led every scientific breakthrough our world ever witnessed or achieved. It is the power of using what the past reached adding what the present is challenging generating what should shape us a future we can always predict to be way much better than our past. In Computer Science, Research has proven itself to be the cause of monstrous rapid progress. It has lead to many industrious innovation in all aspects of this science. Based on the traditional derivation for the computer science engineers that they either work for industry or research fields, in both trends the research is unavoidable. Actually everything we witness now in cloud, networking, learning and automation once based on researches ... once based on this limitless and endless field of our science.

    The world view- University World View


    "How could Alexandria University in Egypt be 147th and

    the top ranked institution in the Arab world? Until then it had occurred to no one that it could be the best university in Egypt. In fact, according to Webometrics, it was not even the best university in Alexandria."

    Alexandria university ranked 147 in THE ranking!


    Individual letters to faculty Sign on Horya Street Media Etc Fruit of the effort of the new university president high output from one scholar in one journal soon identified on various blogs as Mohamed El Naschie, an Egyptian academic who published over 320 of his own articles in a scientific journal of which he was also the editor. In November 2009, Dr. El Naschie sued the British journal Nature for libel over an article alleging his apparent misuse of editorial privileges. The case is still in court."
