Ain Shams University’s Faculty of Arts has announced that all its departments are now open for students with special needs to register for the school year 2017 – 2018. Until the last school year 2016 – 2017, the only departments open for the disabled were the History, Philosophy, and Arabic Language departments.
Earlier this year, President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi announced 2018 to be a year for people with special needs.
The Faculty of Arts invited Heba Hagras, MP and head of the National Council for Woman’s Disability Affairs Committee to attend the first Faculty Board next September, in order to familiarise the members with how to make the campus and college fully accessible to students with special needs.
