Professor Dr. Abdelaziz Konsowa, President of Alexandria University, congratulated Farah Mustafa Mahmoud, student at the Faculty of Economics and Political Science for her completion of the “Global Village for Future Leaders” program, as part of her obtaining a fully funded scholarship from the Iacocca Institute of Lehigh University, wishing her success and good luck.
For his part, Dr. Ahmed Wahban, Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Political Science, honoured the student, explaining that the scholarship she passed primarily aimed to gather young professional entrepreneurs and top university students from all over the world to learn from current leaders and transfer accumulated experiences through an intensive and diverse educational program based on developing their personal leadership vision, and building lifelong relationships in the hope of forming new visions for future leadership.
For her part, the student thanked the university president, the dean of the faculty, and her professors at the faculty for the support she received from them, noting that the training program provided her with opportunities for direct interaction with many international bodies such as the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Labor Organization, in addition to attending workshops and lectures as the only Arab participant in the program. She also had the opportunity to communicate with 55 participants from 38 different countries. She added that she also participated in a strategic project to discover potential partnerships between Egypt and Singapore, and she also had a training opportunity there with Ilico Genetics, an American company based in Philadelphia that focuses on early detection of stomach cancer. She also worked with an international team of global leaders to develop a marketing strategy and data analysis for that company.
