Acquiring new talent from all around the globe, introducing the university to potential new partners and informing about its programs: Those are the goals of the Roadshow, that representatives of Constructor University were executing throughout May. The route led to numerous cities worldwide, the final destination was Cairo, Egypt, which was visited from May 15th to May 19th.
The Constructor University Roadshow is aimed at establishing new synergies with international universities, promoting Constructor activities worldwide and collaborating with new talents in their fields. Whilst the first stops of the Roadshow included Budapest, Hungary, Tashkent, Uzbekistan as well as Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria in South Africa, the university concluded its tour in Cairo, Egypt.
Here, representatives of the University met with the Vice-Minister of Education as well as a deputy secretary general and director from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to discuss possible collaborations in the fields of education, scientific research and student exchange.
Excited to meet new talents, to inform about the University and its programs, and to explore future possibilities for cooperation, representatives of Constructor University also visited around 12 private international schools in Cairo, as well as several student recruitment agencies.
“Egypt has several well-respected universities, identifying higher education as a priority. It also has a vibrant and extensive private university landscape with much in common with Constructor University. We very much looked forward to meeting young talents and identifying potential for future collaborations and exchange here in Cairo,” said Prof. Dr. Thomas Auf der Heyde, Vice President of International Outreach and Public Engagement at Constructor University.
Beyond the workshop, the University also promoted its new Summer Camp, where interested students (ages 16-19) from Egypt were invited to take part. The Summer Camp is aimed at providing pupils the chance to get an impression of studying and living at Constructor University. The camp will run from July 29th to August 9th.
