Exciting day at Victoria College!💚💙
Our Political Science Department had a fantastic event where we introduced our department and launched the "Poli-Sci Youngsters" club for Victoria College students to be the first applicants.

The club will be dedicated to giving school students the opportunity to engage in top-notch political, economic, and social events available for our department's students. 🤩

Special thanks to:

Ms. Sahar Zidan, Head of Victoria College,
Mr. Amr Tarek Head of IG department,
Ms. Dalia Abou-Youssef, Head of American department,
and a special sincere thanks to Ms. Nehad Radwan who was a great help.

The political science department was honored to participate in a highly insightful seminar featuring Professor Ahmed Kamel, Director of the Institute of Arab Research and Studies, and Professor Ahmed Abdullah Zayed, Director of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina. The discussion focused on contemporary international and regional shifts and their impact on Egypt and the Arab world. It highlighted Egypt’s resilience amid regional instability, supported by its people, while examining the weakening global order, the U.S.’s inward turn, and China’s economic and technological challenge to Western dominance through initiatives like BRICS and the Belt and Road Initiative. The speakers also addressed the rise of the far right in the West, the authoritarian tendencies of Trump, and their implications for liberal democracy. Additionally, religious and geopolitical tensions—from the Gaza conflict to Iran’s expanding influence—were analyzed, revealing how external crises have, paradoxically, fostered greater Arab unity. In this uncertain global climate, Egypt must navigate wisely, diversify its alliances, and recognize the growing influence of public opinion in shaping regional dynamics. The seminar proved to be highly enriching for students, who not only gained valuable insights but also actively engaged in discussions, sharing their perspectives on these critical issues.

The Political Science Department at the College of Management and Technology, Arab Academy for Science and Technology, had the honor of attending a distinguished lecture by His Excellency Mr. Andrej Plenković, Prime Minister of Croatia, at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina. Held under the auspices of Admiral Ahmed Khaled Hassan Said, Governor of Alexandria, and Dr. Ahmed Abdullah Zayed, President of the Bibliotheca, the event highlighted the deep historical and cultural ties between Egypt and Croatia. Mr. Plenković emphasized Alexandria’s pivotal role in Mediterranean history and underscored the importance of regional cooperation in areas such as investment, digital transformation, and education. He praised Egypt’s leadership in stability and economic development while reaffirming Croatia’s stance against forced Palestinian displacement and its support for a two-state solution. The lecture offered students invaluable insights into international relations and Mediterranean diplomacy, leaving a lasting impact.
