Prof. Yahya Eid, President of the University, honors the “CoreX” team from the Faculty of Engineering after they win the first place nationwide in the international IEEE CASS (Circuits and Systems Society) competition for designing smart circuits and systems, and officially qualified to represent Egypt in the global finals scheduled to be held in Shanghai in 2026.
During the honoring ceremony, the President expresses his pride and admiration for this distinguished achievement, affirming that what the Faculty of Engineering students accomplish reflects the advanced scientific and research level that the university has reached, and demonstrates its ability to prepare cadres capable of competing regionally and internationally.
He adds that the university places great emphasis on supporting innovation and scientific research, and providing an educational and research environment that encourages creativity. He points out that the qualification of a university team to global finals confirms that the university is steadily progressing toward excellence and leadership, in line with the Egyptian state's vision of building a knowledge-based economy and digital transformation.
Otherwise, Prof. Abdel Fattah Halil, Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, affirms that this achievement is the fruit of outstanding collective work and continuous academic support from faculty members. He praises the students' ability to present advanced engineering solutions to real industrial problems, combining technical innovation with practical application.
It is worth noting that the “CoreX” team wins the first place after strong competition among several Egyptian universities, by presenting an innovative project that integrates artificial intelligence technologies and cybersecurity. The project involves designing an integrated smart platform for managing industrial robots and securing factories against cyber threats and attacks, thereby contributing to enhancing the efficiency and security of smart industrial systems and supporting the requirements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
