About the Conference

Al Azhar University is a university in Cairo which is associated with Al Azhar mosque, it’s Egypt’s oldest degree-granting university, and one of the most prestigious universities in Egypt. Studying sections were assigned inside Al Azhar University since it was established. Recently, a new sector has been introduced into Al Azhar University implying Engineering since 1964.

Al Azhar’s Engineering International Conference (AEIC) started since 1989 to be held regularly. Uniquely, the conference covers a wide range of engineering fields.

Engineering Science

is one of the disciplines and careers in the community that specializes in studying various branches, such as; arts, sciences, physics, mathematics, computer and further engineering branches.
Engineering Science integrates all the previously mentioned branches together in creative ways to develop new technological solutions for engineering analysis for testing, production, maintenance, and construction.

Architecture Engineering is a branch of engineering which combines art, science & technology and application of engineering principles for the development of designing, planning, and construction. Architecture is the constant innovation in designing for high-efficiency in the performance of buildings, in terms of planning, construction, and lighting, while maintaining and applying the art in its form.

Technology is applied sciences that are concerned with the study of evolution and many others such as, industry, arts & crafts and all related subjects.
In Engineering, Technology aims to prepare the next generation of technical professionals in order to contribute to future developments in different technical fields.
