Faculty of Medicine
The university has a well-equipped medical school which follows a traditional style curriculum with a strong pre-clinical/clinical divide, designed for school leavers. The faculty administration has taken the agenda to avoid problem-based-learning and a strong emphasis on sociology in favour of an emphasis on good science. Each course is taught and examined as its own discipline without the type of integration that has become widespread in other schools.

The university has its own advanced teaching hospital, which is being expanded to include a cardio-thoracic surgery department. During the clinical stage of the course, medical students have rotations either in the teaching hospital or affiliate government hospitals in downtown Cairo. After successful completion of the 6 year degree, the student is awarded MB BCh (equivalent to the US title, M.D.) and they can proceed to begin an internship.
