The mission of the Arabic Language and Literature Program is to prepare the student and qualify him linguistically, cognitively, and skillfully through his study of the Arabic language and its literature. This allows him to invest his personal skills to meet the needs of the labor market in the fields of: teaching, media, proofreading, heritage investigation, and tourism. The department also seeks to create a scientific and academic climate that is characterized by flexibility, broad-mindedness, and the ability to develop oneself, by dealing with other departments in the faculty, and establishing the principle of lifelong learning.

The decision of the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research and the President of the Supreme Council of Universities was issued on the first of February, 2016, which stipulates the equivalence of a Bachelor’s degree in languages and translation in the Arabic language and literature major granted by Misr University for Science and Technology with a Bachelor’s degree in Arts (Arabic language and literature) granted by Egyptian universities.

Among the advantages of this department is that it allows the student to study a minor foreign language (English, French, German, Italian). Studying in the Arabic Language Department is in the form of comprehensive and consistent packages as follows: rhetoric, literary criticism, studying the two branches of literature (heritage and contemprary), comparative literature, language sciences and grammar, Oriental languages (Hebrew and Persian), and Islamic studies.
