In the higher education sector in Egypt, due to the growth of the youth population and generous tuition exemptions for all students of governmental university, the number of students per university has been increased and, as a result, most universities suffer from the difficulties to offer quality education and research environment. To improve this situation, in September, 2009, the Egyptian government established a new university, Egypt-Japan University of Science and Technology (hereinafter refer to E-JUST) in Borg El-Arab City, Alexandria Governorate, with cooperation of Japan International Cooperation Agency (hereinafter refer to JICA) and twelve leading Japanese universities, among which Waseda University, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Kyoto University and Kyushu University are recognized as the direct-supervising universities. The concept of E-JUST is based on Japanese graduate engineering education and research such as research-oriented and laboratory-based learning. In this paper, the authors present the concept of E-JUST and supporting system from Japanese universities.
