Commission Hosts its 1st Annual Alumni Conference

On September 9, 2015 the Commission in cooperation with the Faculty of Engineering at Cairo University, hosted its first annual alumni academic conference. The conference included talks by returning Fulbrighters of the last two academic years, AY2013-2014 and AY2014-2015, who presented on their academic research and training in the US. Each gave a 10-minute presentation outlining his/her work and its findings and shared cultural experiences acquired in the US with fellow Fulbrighters.

This was followed by our annual alumni reception hosted this year by the H.E. Ambassador R. Stephen Beecroft, Ambassador of the U.S. to Egypt to congratulate returning Egyptian Fulbrighters on the successful finalization of their grants and thank BFCE board and team for their dedication to serve the cause of enhancing education opportunities in Egypt.
