Misr University for Science and Technology

About Misr University for Science and Technology

Misr University for Science and Technology is an independent private university recognized within Egypt’s higher-education system. The Egyptian Supreme Council of Universities includes it on the national list of accredited private universities, while the university traces its establishment to Presidential Decree No. 245 of 1996. Its official history states that it has legal recognition from Egyptian educational authorities and authority to grant bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees. MUST operates from Al-Motamayez District in 6th of October City. Its academic scope is broad, combining professionally oriented health programs with engineering, computing, sciences, business, humanities, and communication fields. This breadth may suit students seeking a multidisciplinary university rather than a specialist institute, although applicants should evaluate accreditation, curriculum, clinical arrangements, and professional recognition at the individual program level. The institution is operating as of August 2026. Its admissions website remains active, and the postgraduate application portal specifically identifies Fall 2026–2027 as open for applications. The official undergraduate and graduate directories also display active colleges and programs. Students comparing offers should rely on the exact award title shown for their intended program, since program length, entry conditions, language requirements, and pathways into regulated professions can differ substantially across colleges.

MUST’s current admissions portal accepts undergraduate and postgraduate applications, with the postgraduate registration page explicitly open for Fall 2026–2027. The general undergraduate checklist requests the original secondary-school certificate, birth certificate, six recent photographs, military-status documentation for Egyptian male applicants, and a national identity card or passport as applicable. The portal says original documents should be accompanied by three photocopies. Admission rules depend on the applicant’s certificate and intended college. The university states that it follows regulations established by Egypt’s Supreme Council of Universities and Council of Private Universities. Its general policy says applicants should have completed at least eleven years of regular schooling and passed the subjects required for their chosen college. Students presenting American, IGCSE, or other non-Egyptian certificates should verify the current subject and equivalency rules rather than relying on requirements for the Egyptian Thanaweya Amma. International applicants are instructed to create an account through Egypt’s Study in Egypt platform. After receiving final acceptance through that platform, they should address visa procedures with the relevant embassy or consulate. No reliable university-wide undergraduate deadline or current minimum score by college was found in the reviewed official sources; applicants should obtain written confirmation for their certificate type and 2026–2027 intake.

MUST’s undergraduate directory covers medicine, oral and dental surgery, physical therapy, engineering sciences and technology, information technology, applied health science technology, biotechnology, nursing, media and communication, foreign languages and translation, archaeology and tourism guidance, special education, pharmaceutical sciences, and business, economics, and information systems. The university’s degree inventory provides more decision-useful detail. Engineering options include construction, architecture, biomedical, computer and software, communications, electrical power, mechatronics, mechanical power, and industrial and systems engineering. Information technology lists bachelor’s majors in computer science, information systems, and artificial intelligence. Biotechnology combines a bachelor’s program with master’s tracks in medical and pharmaceutical biotechnology and environmental and agricultural biotechnology. Other listed areas include medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, physical therapy, mass communication, archaeology, conservation, tourism guidance, languages, accounting, finance, economics, political science, and hospital management. Graduate availability is not uniform across every subject. The official degree page lists numerous master’s programs, including programs in medicine, dentistry, engineering, information technology, pharmacy, biotechnology, media, archaeology, and languages. The institutional history confirms authority to award PhD degrees, but the reviewed program directories did not provide a clear, current consolidated list of doctoral programs. Prospective graduate students should therefore verify the precise award, supervising department, current intake, research requirements, and program-specific admission rules before applying.

Key Highlights

Student Life & Environment

MUST provides university-affiliated housing for students who live far from campus, including international students, Egyptian students living abroad, and exchange students. Its housing page describes separate accommodation for men and women, furnished rooms or apartments, transportation, continuous supervision, and emergency medical support. It places the residences about five minutes from campus, but publishes neither current prices nor a guarantee that every applicant will receive a place. The university identifies sports, cultural activity, arts, volunteering, and student organizations as parts of campus life. Listed organizations include Enactus, AIESEC, IEEE, medical, pharmaceutical, and dental student associations, and MUST Life Club. Students should check which groups are active during their intended year rather than assuming every listed organization recruits each term. International Student Affairs offers application assistance, electronic registration and advising, housing coordination, transportation discounts, and cultural or recreational activities. The university also advertises a central library and campus health services. Because access conditions and charges may vary, students should confirm what is included in tuition and what requires a separate payment.

Location & Surroundings

The university’s address is Al-Motamayez District, 6th of October City, Egypt. Although the database city is Giza, the campus is not in central Giza city: 6th of October City lies within Giza Governorate and the wider Greater Cairo region. An EBRD city profile places it in the desert approximately 35 kilometres west of central Cairo. This location gives students access to the educational, commercial, cultural, and employment resources of the Greater Cairo metropolitan area while placing everyday campus life in a planned satellite city. Travel time to central Cairo can be materially longer than the distance suggests, so applicants should evaluate their likely commute at relevant class and clinical-placement hours. University housing is described as close to campus, while the International Student Affairs office reports transportation support and a discount on university bus fees for international students living outside 6th of October City. Students planning to live independently should compare housing location, transport availability, and late-evening travel arrangements before signing a lease.

Costs & Career Outcomes

A current, comprehensive 2026–2027 tuition schedule was not publicly verifiable in the reviewed official sources. The university states that an application fee is non-refundable, but the accessible page does not provide a current amount. Housing charges were also unavailable. Students should request an itemized written quotation showing tuition, application and registration charges, laboratory or clinical fees, insurance, housing, transport, and any currency or payment rules applicable to their nationality and program. International Student Affairs describes optional or separately charged services, including university-bus discounts and health coverage. Its page quotes an annual health-insurance amount, but because the page does not identify a 2026–2027 validity period, that figure should not be treated as current without confirmation. Scholarship information available through older university materials was likewise insufficient for presenting a current general award policy. For career preparation, MUST’s Career Advice Development Center describes employer engagement, field training, job fairs, career coaching, vacancy support, skills programs, digital bootcamps, and graduate tracking. These are available service categories, not evidence of placement rates or salary outcomes. Students in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, engineering, and other regulated fields should independently confirm professional recognition and licensing requirements in the country where they intend to work.
