Welcome from Head of Department

Welcome to FEPS’s PAD – the Public Administration Department. FEPS is a leading faculty, and PAD takes pride in being its hub for the study of public administration and public policies. PAD is a very ambitious department; as in almost thirty years since the establishment of the Department in 1990, it became the first in the country offering distinguished public administration education. PAD offers students a unique opportunity of interdisciplinary learning, practical skills, and applied experience. These will serve to prepare them for the different career paths of their choice. We take our mission for excellence very seriously; as we are in the business of training future leaders to support evidence-based policy making, effective and efficient administration of government and nonprofit organizations, and better public governance domestically and internationally. Many of our students are professionals, which is a fantastic opportunity for networking and building social capital. At FEPS, you have the privilege of being a student, researcher, and leader. You also have the opportunity of working closely with the international organizations and many government officials in Egypt. Having had this experience, you will know there is an extraordinary connection between the practice and curricula at PAD. Whether you are a student, alumnus, potential student, or a visitor to our site, I invite you to explore what PAD offers.
