Under the auspices of Dr. Abdelaziz Konsowa, President of Alexandria University, the Faculty of Dentistry celebrated the graduation of its 77th cohort, the Class of 2025, during a grand ceremony held last night at the main conference hall of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

The event was attended by Dr. Ahmed Adel Abdel Hakim, Dean of the Faculty, faculty vice deans, H.E. Ambassador Ghanem Saqr Al-Ghanem, Ambassador of the State of Kuwait to Egypt, Dr. Khaled Al-Mohareb, Head of the Kuwaiti Cultural Office, as well as representatives from the Malaysian Embassy, faculty members, students, and their families.

In his speech during the ceremony, Dr. Ahmed Adel Abdel Hakim, Dean of the Faculty, expressed his joy at this exceptional moment which embodies the fruit of years of hard work and dedication. He extended his sincere thanks and appreciation to all who supported the students throughout their journey — the faculty members who were academic and moral pillars, and the parents who provided unwavering support and care for their children.

The Dean emphasized that graduation is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new chapter filled with challenges and responsibilities. He voiced his full confidence in the graduates’ ability to face the future with competence and to continue growing and contributing in their fields.

He also highlighted that the Faculty spares no effort in offering academic and scientific support to students, particularly in the postgraduate phase, through a comprehensive "Continuous Medical Education Platform" that offers a wide range of intensive specialized courses, in addition to traditional postgraduate programs spanning 14 sub-specialties.

Dr. Abdel Hakim noted the Faculty’s pioneering strides in international collaboration, including the signing of academic agreements with top global universities such as the University of Barcelona (Spain) and the University of Essex (UK). These agreements have enabled students to obtain dual master's degrees — one in dentistry from Alexandria University and another in artificial intelligence and computer science applications from the University of Essex. These initiatives align with the University's vision, under the leadership of Dr. Abdelaziz Konsowa, to strengthen international partnerships and enhance the educational system.

Dr. Mohamed Mamdouh Shokry, Vice Dean for Education and Student Affairs and Director of the International Education Program, affirmed that the Faculty has become a preferred educational destination for international students from various Arab, African, and Asian countries.
