The American University in Cairo

The American University in Cairo offers a liberal arts and sciences education in a diversified environment that includes both academically and professionally oriented concentrations at bachelor’s and master’s levels, a large adult education program, two applied research centers, and an active press.

AUC teaches in English and follows American educational principles; it operates within the heritage of Egypt and the surrounding Arab world. Three-quarters of AUC’s students are Egyptian. Approximately five percent are American – mostly studying intensive Arabic or on study abroad programs from American universities; some take AUC undergraduate or graduate degrees.

AUC is a private university, incorporated and licensed in the United States. It is accredited by the Middle States Association in Philadelphia, PA, and functions in Egypt under a cultural convention between Egypt and the U.S. AUC’s degrees are fully recognized in both countries.
