Higher education in Egypt leading to a bachelor’s degree is accessible through the high number and variety of higher education establishments in the country. This variety of institutions includes 23 public universities (established and run by the government), 22 private universities (established and run by private consortiums sometimes in collaboration with foreign higher education colleges or universities, eg, the British or German or Russian universities), and 150 private higher education institutes (established and run by non-governmental organizations). Students also have the choice to obtain degrees from the Workers University Al-Azhar University (in which enrollment is limited to graduates of the Al-Azhar school system) and the Egyptian E-Learning University. Alternatively, students can join the open learning programs offered by a number of public universities (eg, Cairo university has many open learning programs in the liberal arts). All institutions of higher education in Egypt operate under the umbrella of the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE). The Ministry grants operating licenses and recognizes degrees offered. Many new institutes were recently established delivering large numbers of graduates annually. Employers and syndicates expressed disappointment about the knowledge and skills of institutes’ graduates. This was attributed to the lack of control by the Ministry over the teaching and learning processes taking place in the higher education institutes. This article discusses the new systems being introduced to the private higher education institutes in order to monitor, develop, and enhance the teaching and learning processes.
