The activities included the Faculty of Computer and Information hosting seventh-stage students, Level (E2), on Monday, August 17, 2026, and eighth-stage students, Level (E1), on Tuesday, August 18. On the same day, the Faculties of Medicine and Agriculture hosted sixth-stage students, Level (F1), in the Medical and Energy & Environment tracks.
As part of his commitment to on-site follow-up, Prof. Mahmoud Farouk Selim conducted an inspection tour to check on the students and follow up on the progress of the activities. He listened to their views on modern technology, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity, commending their enthusiasm for these fields and their eagerness to learn about their applications. In addition, he emphasized the importance of developing the skills of this generation in line with the future demands.
At the Faculty of Computer and Information, the students were welcomed in the presence of Prof. Nancy El-Hefnawy, Faculty Dean; Prof. Omnia El-Barbary, Vice Dean for Community Service and Environmental Development; Prof. Samir Zaki Qamh, Coordinator of the Child University Program at Tanta University; and Prof. Aida Nasr, Head of the Information Technology Department and the faculty’s Program Coordinator.
The program introduced students to the concept of Prompt Engineering and how to formulate clear prompts to obtain better results from artificial intelligence applications.
