Accreditation: 

Newgiza University (NGU) was established as a private university by a presidential Decree “93” in April 2010. NGU schools are acknowledged by the Ministry of Higher Education (MHE) and the Supreme Council of Universities (SCU).

The university will eventually include twelve Schools: Medicine; Pharmacy; Dentistry; Nursing and Health Science; Economics and Politics; Law; Business and Finance; Engineering; Information Technology; Arts and Design; Archaeology; and Languages and Interpretation. Currently, eight schools are functioning (Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Business and Finance, Economics and Politics, Engineering, Information Technology, and Arts and Design).

The School of Medicine was acknowledged by decree “3356” in August 2016. Every school will apply for accreditation by the National Authority for Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Education (NAQAAE) after the graduation of the first cohort.

University College London (UCL):

The School of Medicine at NGU has an academic collaboration with University College London (UCL), enhancing its academic capabilities, as well as offering world-renowned undergraduate program, providing both the school and students with ample opportunities for development on an academic and personal level.

This collaboration ensured that the highest international standards in teaching and research are met at NGU, with highly qualified faculty members providing instruction and supervision. As part of this collaboration, senior faculty, and staff from UCL worked with their NGU colleagues in strategic planning and organization of the new programs, setting up appropriate infrastructure and education governance structures, developing curricula and learning resources, faculty and senior staff recruitment, faculty development, course evaluation and education quality assurance. Where appropriate, NGU utilizes existing UCL teaching and assessment resources to deliver its programs.

Having currently ranked 9th on the QS World University Rankings 2025, and consistently placing in the top 20 of various global university rankings, UCL is widely recognized for its research capabilities and contributions to sciences and innovations. It was rated 2nd in the UK for research power in the Research Excellence Framework 2021. Moreover, UCL boasts 30 Nobel Prize winners, and was recently selected as University of the Year 2024 (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024).

The UCL Medical School is currently ranked 6th in the world in the QS World University Rankings by Subject (2023).

Program mission

The MBBCh program mission is to produce a distinctive NGU Doctor: a scientifically literate, research informed, patient-centred and socially responsible professional who can serve the health needs of individuals and communities both in Egypt and beyond.

As a student of medicine at NGU you will be joining an exciting and impressive medical school. Your degree will follow a Five-year academic program (followed by  Two-years internship) that includes a stimulating Introductory Module where you will learn alongside students from the other health and life sciences programs followed by a series of ‘horizontal modules’ which focus on body systems and clinical disciplines and vertical themes which focus on important professional topics including clinical skills, professional development, social determinants of health and use of evidence, Student activities and electives.

Your Learning

You will be taught through lectures, tutorials, small-group work, laboratory classes and placements. Later years will involve attachments to teams of consultants and doctors. You will be expected to supplement learning in the university and in healthcare settings with directed self-learning.

You will be assessed by contemporary assessment methods including written exam, objective clinical teaching clinical examinations supplemented with a complete portfolio. The program integrates basic medical sciences and clinical sciences with professional skills and competencies throughout. Small group work and assigned tasks will enhance key generic skills including independent learning, critical thinking, scholarly writing and scientific method.

The MBBCh is five Academic years & two years internship

The MBBCh program is an integrated program. This means a deliberate blurring of the boundaries between basic science, and clinical science, between theory and practice and between disciplines. Although delivered in an integrated format, the program includes all the core basic sciences, clinical sciences, practical knowledge and skills and professional and generic skills required to address the intended learning outcomes.

The program contains 325 credit units  (308 compulsory and 17 elective) . These credit units do not represent only contact hours, but the total learning effort required to achieve the learning outcomes including direct contact hours in classrooms, small groups and practical classes, workplace-based learning in clinical placements, project work, self-paced learning delivered via the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and self-directed learning. A credit unit is estimated to represent 25 hours of study.

Are you nearing the end of your internship and wondering where to go next? Whether you’re exploring clinical residencies, academia, public health or alternative paths, this session is tailored to help you navigate the future of your medical career in Egypt.

Second Career pathway Guidance Event

The Pathways to Medicine – Exploring Specialties for Your Future Career (Part II) event, held virtually via Zoom on February 27, 2025, at 9 PM, aimed to guide NGU medical students in selecting their specialties. Organized by the Career Development Office, the session featured doctors who shared their career journeys, challenges, and insights. Out of 215 registrants, 66 attended, actively engaging in discussions and expressing positive feedback. The event successfully achieved its goal of providing career guidance, and future sessions are planned to explore additional specialties to further support students in their career decisions.

First Career Pathway Guidance Event

The Career pathway Guidance Event, held on Wednesday, January 29th, at 9 PM, was a highly successful gathering aimed at helping NGU School of Medicine students and graduates explore career paths in internal medicine specialties. A total of 421 students and graduates registered, with approximately 224 attending the session. Experienced doctors from various internal medicine fields shared their journeys, insights, and advice, providing attendees with a clearer vision for their future.

Feedback from participants reflected great satisfaction, highlighting the value of the discussions and the opportunity to ask essential career-related questions. The event also emphasized upcoming sessions covering other medical specialties, as well as job opportunities for students and graduates. This marks the beginning of a series of insightful events designed to support NGU medical students in making informed career decisions.

The student support team serves the undergraduate student community through group and individual meetings.
