Report of Study Visits to Egypt and the UK by NUC Strategy Advisory Committee Page 1 Report of Study Visits to Egypt and the UK by NUC Strategy Advisory Committee page 1 Signature page Delegate Signature Professor Peter A. Okebukola Professor Ruqayyatu Ahmed Rufa’i Professor Nimi Briggs Professor Michael Faborode Ibukun Olagbemiro Olufemi Jenrola Adebayo Report of Study Visits to Egypt and the UK by NUC Strategy Advisory Committee page 2 Executive Summary he National Universities Commission (NUC)’s 2018-2023 Blueprint for the Revitalisation of the Nigerian University System initiated and superintended by H.A.E. Professor Abubakar Adamu T Rasheed, mni, MFR, FNAL, Executive Secretary of NUC, rests on sixteen drivers including access, quality, relevance and funding. A latent component of these drivers is the harnessing of good practices from all over the world from where lessons can be learned for possible adoption for the Nigerian context. It was in the spirit of seeking such good practices that the Executive Secretary approved that the NUC Strategy Advisory Committee (STRADVCOM) undertake a study visit of the university systems of selected countries including Egypt and the UK. The objectives of the first phase of the study visits were to: undertake a critical onsite assessment of the Egyptian and UK university systems; draw lessons for the revitalisation of the Nigerian university system and the advisory work of STRADVCOM; and seek areas of possible collaboration between the Supreme Council of Universities (SUC) of Egypt, the National Authority for Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Education (NAQAAE) of Egypt and the Quality Assurance Authority (QAA) of the UK as well as with universities in Nigeria. Over 40 lessons were learned with significant potential for the implementation of the 2018-2023 NUC Blueprint. All the sites visited also learned lessons from NUC for improving their delivery systems and productivity. All expressed the desire to enter into partnership with NUC, via Memoranda of Understanding (MoU). Highlights of conclusions are: • Supreme Council of Universities: eager to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NUC to accelerate partnership between both bodies for a mutually-beneficial relationship particularly in areas of strength of both organisations. • The National Authority for Quality Assurance and Accreditation of Education (NAQAAE): authorities were impressed with the commonalities in the accreditation procedures of NAQAAE with those of NUC but learned the lesson of applying sanctions on institutions and programmes that underperform in accreditation. Such sanctions encourage universities to take steps towards remediation. NAQAAE is willing to partner NUC in implementing the Blueprint in the area of quality assurance. • Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) of the UK: QAA expressed its willingness to support NUC in the implementation of the 2018-2023 Blueprint. It is desirous of entering into official partnership with NUC to include activities such as joint institutional quality assurance (QAA does not conduct programme accreditation), exchange of relevant documents that can help enhance quality assurance work of the NUC, running of international conferences on quality assurance, capacity building for NUC quality assurance staff. • Cairo University, Egypt: Wishes to explore partnership with NUC including staff and student exchange with Nigerian universities and sharing of best practices in university management. • Al-Azhar University, Egypt: The university is desirous of entering into partnership with NUC that will give it ample chance to directly partner Nigerian universities. • Kafrelsheikh University, Egypt: The President expressed his eagerness to sign an MoU with NUC to foster different layers of cooperation between Kafrelsheikh and Nigerian universities through NUC. The lessons learned, and the drafts of such MoUs (sample in the Appendix) are to be conveyed to the Executive Secretary of NUC through Strategy Advisory Notes of STRADVCOM.

  • A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement In
    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement in African Tertiary Institutions Written by Funmi E. Vogt This project was funded through the support of the Carnegie Corporation About the African Leadership Centre In July 2008, King’s College London through the Conflict, Security and Development group (CSDG), established the African Leadership Centre (ALC). In June 2010, the ALC was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya, as a joint initiative of King’s College London and the University of Nairobi. The ALC aims to build the next generation of scholars and analysts on peace, security and development. The idea of an African Leadership Centre was conceived to generate innovative ways to address some of the challenges faced on the African continent, by a new generation of “home‐grown” talent. The ALC provides mentoring to the next generation of African leaders and facilitates their participation in national, regional and international efforts to achieve transformative change in Africa, and is guided by the following principles: a) To foster African‐led ideas and processes of change b) To encourage diversity in terms of gender, region, class and beliefs c) To provide the right environment for independent thinking d) Recognition of youth agency e) Pursuit of excellence f) Integrity The African Leadership Centre mentors young Africans with the potential to lead innovative change in their communities, countries and across the continent. The Centre links academia and the real world of policy and practice, and aims to build a network of people who are committed to the issue of Peace and Security on the continent of Africa.

  • Studying Emergent Computation Using New General Model of Cellular Automata
    International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Emerging Technologies, October 2013. ISSN: 22316604 Volume 6, Issue 2, pp: 133-141 ©IJESET CELLULAR AUTOMATA FOR ADAPTIVE WEB PORTAL STRUCTURE IN EGYPTIAN UNIVERSITIES Yasser F. Hassan Department of Mathematics & Computer Science, Faculty of Science, Alexandria University, Egypt ABSTRACT In the last few years, intelligent software applications are increased in complexity and in stakeholders' expectations, principally due to new internet-centric application areas with better performance. The modeled development process in this paper involves simulated processes of evolution, learning and self-organization. University portal provides a single point of access to university-based resources which are authorized to use. The research explores and adaptive portal website link-structure considering the website as interconnecting cells in cellular automata model browsed from the root domain. The potential of cellular automata model guides the factor adaptation and evaluated and emergent computation adequately extracts the main website profiles in terms of their internal structure. KEYWORDS- University Portal, Web Software, Cellular Automata, Adaptive, Egypt I. INTRODUCTION A university portal is a web-based gateway that provides seamless access to a variety of backend resources [1] [6]. University portal provides end-users with a customized view of software and hardware resources that specific to their particular domain. The main challenge for building university portal is to make up-to-date building information more accessible and reflect the increasing services [2]. Universities want to see a control portal that works with customers (students, staff, or visitors) to help them achieve a building portal that meets both their expectations and building standards designed for the public good.
