Ambassador for the Economics and Management program:

Abdelrahman Ammar, our current student from Egypt, is happy to assist you with any queries regarding studies at our faculty! Don't hesitate to contact him.

"I became an ambassador because I know how important it is to have someone who answers questions openly and builds confidence when choosing a university. I am here to support all prospective students, especially those from Arab countries and the Middle East who may face similar challenges. Coming from Egypt and accomplishing a lot with the help of my university, I want to guide others along this path, share my experiences, and show them the opportunities our university offers through open communication and active involvement in events." – Abdelrahman Ammar
