Newsletter 2/2024 l Freie Universität Berlin Cairo Office

Oct 15, 2024

Dear Alumni, Partners, and Friends of Freie Universität Berlin,

What a busy and exciting few weeks it has been for the Egyptian-German academic community in Cairo! We’re excited to share some of the standout moments from a series of events that brought together scholars, students, and institutions from both countries. These gatherings really underscored how strong and valued these academic collaborations are, and the energy around them is only growing.

From matchmaking events sparking new research partnerships to thought-provoking lectures, engaging study days, and meaningful discussions with parents and students, the enthusiasm has been infectious.

On top of these event highlights, we’ve also included several open calls for PhD positions and scholarships in this newsletter. We hope you’ll take a look and spread the word!

Thank you for being such an important part of our community!

Yours,

Freie Universität Berlin Cairo Liaison Office
