Introduction
The department of Architecture is interested in providing a distinguished education for students so that they can serve the state and restore the Egyptian role in building global civilization. Architectural education prepares students for professional practice, research, education, industry, and government services as it relates to the design of the physical environment. The central issue in architecture engineering is the quality of human resources and, therefore, how to accommodate a diverse and complex variety of activities. The needs of the people, the context of the building and the influence of natural forces all must be considered as major factors included in any structure design. Create structures that are not only aesthetically pleasing and technically sound, but also act as agents of development and integration within communities. This is underlined by a curriculum that maintains a reasonable balance between using emerging digital design methods and education, meeting professional requirements, and creating a human and sustainable contextual awareness.
