About Canadian International College (CIC) – Cairo

The Canadian International College, Cairo is the Cairo campus for Cape Breton University in Nova Scotia, Canada, and is the sole provider of Canadian higher education in Egypt.

Established in 2004, the university aims to bring the Canadian education system closer to Egyptian students and provide students with affordable Canadian bachelor degrees.

At the beginning there were just 250 students across two schools and only one campus. This has since expanded to more than 8,000 students on two campuses, in the residential area of El Tagamoa El Khames in New Cairo city and the city of El Sheikh Zayed.

The university offers programmes in business administration, business information technology, engineering and mass communication among others.

The university has co-operative agreements with more than 40 companies to help students gain experience in their fields. The co-operative education internship programme provides students the opportunity to alternate periods of classroom study with up to four periods of off-campus work experience at major local, Arab and international companies.

The university has also formed partnerships with a number of international universities, such as Lakehead University, Memorial University MBA Program and the University of Windsor.

Three types of programmes are offered: an Egyptian programme in which students are awarded an Egyptian bachelor’s degree accredited by the university and the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education; a Canadian bachelor’s degree from Cape Breton University according to the field of study; and the Canadian programme in which students only obtain a Canadian bachelor’s degree from Cape Breton University.

Students are also given the opportunity to travel and study in Canada for one term or one full year.
