   Prof. Al-Sayyed Al-Agouz, Vice President of Tanta University for Education and Student Affairs, chaired the first meeting of the Education and Student Affairs Council for the academic year, 2026/2027. The meeting was attended by Council members, including Prof. Amal Kabbash, Full Professor at Faculty of Pharmacy and external Council member; Prof. Mona Al-A’sar, Dean of Faculty of Pharmacy; Prof. Nancy Al-Hefnawy, Acting Dean of Faculty of Computer and Information; the Vice Deans of the faculties for Education and Student Affairs; and Dr. Haitham Al-Koumy, Director General of the General Administration of Education Affairs.
   At the beginning of the meeting, Prof. Al-Agouz stressed the importance of adhering to the academic calendar approved by the Supreme Council of Universities for the current academic year, particularly with regard to completing the required number of study weeks. This will ensure that students have sufficient time to understand their course content and achieve the intended learning outcomes. He also emphasized the need to observe the scheduled dates for first-semester examinations, both practical and theoretical, while ensuring that no examinations are held on days coinciding with Christian religious holidays.
   The Vice President also instructed the Vice Deans for Education and Student Affairs to review and record tuition fees separately for each academic year and update them on the University website, in coordination with the IT unit officials at the faculties and the University. He further stressed the importance of allowing Mainstream Program students to pay their tuition fees throughout the academic year. He also directed that students be registered and listed in Student Affairs records using their student codes rather than alphabetical order, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the educational process and the accuracy of student data.
   In addition, Prof. Al-Agouz emphasized the importance of continuous monitoring by the Vice Deans of the performance of the Measurement and Evaluation Units and Distance Learning Units at the faculties, as well as working to activate their roles and achieve their intended objectives.
   Further, he stressed the need for all faculties to maintain their electronic examination-marking devices, ensure that all relevant license information is complete, and renew the maintenance contracts for these devices.
   Furthermore, Prof. Al-Agouz underscored the importance of updating all data and information related to the various aspects of the educational process on the website of the Education and Student Affairs Sector including the Student Guide, the Outstanding Students Guide, information on the number of regular and unique programs, as well as other data related to the educational process, student services, and academic regulations. These updates are essential to ensuring the accuracy and currency of information, facilitating access for beneficiaries, supporting digital transformation, and further developing the Sector's administrative and operational systems.
