In 2019, the School welcomed its first CEMS MIM cohort, and today, 16 students have graduated from the first two cohorts, with the third cohort graduating this year.

From Talaat Harb’s legendary Studio Misr founded in the 30’s to rival Hollywood’s studios, to the inspirational literature of Noble Artis Naguib Mahfouz, Egypt’s contemporary history continues to follow in the footsteps of its ancestors, acting as a strong regional force, as well as an active brain on the world stage to impact everything from art and culture to education and development.
