Under the patronage of Prof. Dr. Ayman El-Shahaby, Dean of the Faculty, the 3rd Annual Training and Employment Forum was held at the Faculty of Engineering, Shubra, Benha University, for students and graduates on Monday, March 4, 2024, at the faculty’s two locations: Al-Khalafawy and Rod El-Farag. The event was attended by 40 leading companies working in various engineering fields, aiming to provide training and employment opportunities for students and graduates.

This significant engineering event reflects the faculty’s commitment to supporting its outstanding students and graduates through a job fair, professional talks, career guidance sessions, and technical skills workshops.

An official invitation from the Dean was sent to 40 major industrial companies and training firms. After coordination, attendance was confirmed by most, with 5 companies unable to attend due to time constraints. Arrangements were made to distinguish between companies giving lectures in the auditorium and those participating only in the exhibition held in the faculty courtyard.

The forum began with welcoming the companies at the Dean’s office in the presence of the faculty vice-deans and several faculty members. Discussions focused on the scope of graduates’ work and how to secure job opportunities in these companies.

A schedule for the forum day was organized, setting specific times for each company’s presentation to allow students to attend all sessions.

Each company’s lecture was limited to about 30 minutes, including a Q&A session with student representatives.

Recommendations:

• The Training and Employment Forum effectively contributed to strengthening the practical training component for the faculty’s graduates.

• Based on the benefits of this forum, it is recommended to hold this event annually and invite an even larger number of leading industrial companies.
