WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT
ESLSCA Business School since its inception in 1949 has emerged as a major player within the educational system in France. Starting from the 1960’s ESLSCA started to internationalize their programs and to develop global partners in education. The 1990’s witnessed the launch of collaboration whence ESLSCA started to offer graduate degree programs in Egypt. This European initiative represented a new milestone in the landscape of higher education in Egypt which was mainly dominated by local public and private universities. Currently ESLSCA University is offering both undergraduate and graduate programs through the School of Business Administration and the School of Computing and Digital Technology.
We at ESLSCA University realize the significant challenges that we are facing in education and are well prepared to meet them and turn them into innovative opportunities for all stakeholders: faculty, students, researchers, business community, among others. Our faculty realize that innovation in teaching is not just about technology; but is mainly about erasing boundaries on the map of knowledge and the optimum use of classroom time. We want to stimulate and develop our students’ intellectual curiosity, their creativity and their professional skills. We want our students to develop a commitment to an interdisciplinary approach that enables them to become proactive, problem solvers and catalysts of future changes. In short, we are intent on getting them future ready.
Additionally, we want to nurture cross-national and cross-cultural understanding and collaboration especially as cultural competency is a prerequisite to navigate in today’s multicultural environment.
Last but not least always remember that you are our lifelong ambassadors, ESLSCIANS today and forever.
