Cairo University
Cairo University (previously known as the Egyptian University 1908-1940, then King Fuad I University 1940-1952) is Egypt's premier public university with its main campus in Giza, immediately across the Nile from Cairo. It was founded on 21 December 1908;〔"Brief history and development of Cairo University." Cairo University Faculty of Engineering. http://www.eng.cu.edu.eg/CUFE/History/CairoUniversityShortNote/tabid/81/language/en-US/Default.aspx〕 however, after being originally housed in various parts of Cairo, its faculties, beginning with the Faculty of Arts, were established on its current main campus in Giza only in October 1929. It is the second oldest institution of higher education in Egypt after Al Azhar University, notwithstanding the pre-existing higher professional schools that later became constituent colleges of the university. It was originally founded and funded as the Egyptian University by a committee of private citizens with royal patronage in 1908 and became a state institution under King Fuad I in 1925.〔Cuno, Kenneth M. Review: Cairo University and the Making of Modern Egypt by Donald Malcolm Reid. JSTOR. http://www.jstor.org/stable/368175〕 In 1940, four years following his death, the University was renamed King Fuad I University in his honor. It was renamed a second time after the Free Officer’s Coup of 1952.〔
The University currently enrolls approximately 155,000 students in 22 faculties.〔Cairo University. The roots of Cairo University.

==History==
The university was founded on 21 December 1908, as the result of an effort to establish a national center for educational thought. Several constituent colleges preceded the establishment of the university including the College of Engineering () in 1816, which was shut down by the Khedive of Egypt and Sudan, Sa'id Pasha, in 1854. Cairo University was founded as a European-inspired civil university, in contrast to the religious university of Al Azhar, and became the prime indigenous model for other state universities. In 1928, the first group of female students enrolled at the university.
