Global Partnerships

Fostering partnerships is considered the core goal that enables HU-IRO to provide all of its services. There are multiple objectives for our partnerships & the ultimate outcome is to find common goals that help create agreements & Memorandums of Understanding-MOUs with each organization to achieve outcomes aligning with each party’s mission & vision.

International Visits 

HU-IRO is responsible for arranging & hosting campus visits from International institutions, as well as stays at SEKEM Farm. The visits objective varies according to the desired outcome & goal, yet all seek to find a common ground thus benefiting both parties.

Students Exchange

Empowering cultural experiences is not only limited to HU students, but we encourage international students to join HU as well. We’ve had multiple experiences throughout the years where international students expanded their education at HU & explored Egypt’s culture.

Previous Exchange Experiences

Internships

To truly unfold their full potential, we provide HU students with multiple opportunities to enhance their experience in their chosen field of study. 

Summer School & Camps

We believe that Summer can include both fun and educational learning experiences. 

That’s why we provide our students with incredible opportunities during summer that are both educational & cultural. HU students get to expand their educational horizons in prestigious universities, while going on adventures around the world.
