The introduction of new post-graduate training programme for “MSc degree in Applied Environmental Geosciences and Water Resources Management in line with EU Standards” complies with the priorities and objectives of the Egyptian Ministry of  Higher Education in particular with the development strategy of Faculties of Science, Agriculture & Engineering in Assiut & South Valley Universities.
The major challenge of putting the new course into operation is to develop interuniversity and interdepartmental cooperation. The curriculum development in Assiut and South Valley Universities will be carried out by introduction of a new MSc training programme in “Applied Environmental Geosciences and Water Resources Management” by October  2008.
