Sadat Academy…Education copes with the labor market and ‎graded opportunities from undergraduate to postgraduate ‎studies


The choice of university specialization is no longer a separate decision ‎from the student's professional future, in light of a rapidly changing labor ‎market due to digital transformation, artificial intelligence, the expansion of ‎the private sector, projects and entrepreneurship. In this context, during ‎August 2026, the Sadat Academy for Administrative Sciences witnessed a ‎set of educational activities, events and announcements that reflected a ‎clear trend towards linking education to the needs of the labor market, and ‎expanding the options available to students and graduates, whether ‎through bachelor's and bachelor's programs or through graduate and ‎professional programs.‎
This comes in parallel with the Sadat Academy's vision to develop its ‎educational programs continuously, as Prof. Mohammed Saleh Hashim, ‎President of the Academy, explained that the student's choice of ‎specialization that corresponds to his abilities and tendencies represents ‎one of the most important keys to success, calling for moving beyond the ‎traditional concept of "top colleges" and paying attention to the disciplines ‎needed by the labor market.‎
The labor market is changing. Digital skills have become a necessity
The head of the academy stressed that technological transformations do ‎not necessarily mean the disappearance of traditional professions, but ‎rather the change in the nature of their performance, pointing out that ‎artificial intelligence, data analysis, software, cybersecurity and other fields ‎have become an essential part of the jobs of the future. He also stressed ‎the need for students and graduates to continue learning and training and ‎not just obtain a university degree.‎
In a television interview in August, Dr. Mohammed Saleh Hashem spoke ‎about the future of jobs and the impact of artificial intelligence and ‎technology on the labor market, stressing that the private sector and small ‎and micro enterprises will play an increasing role in providing job ‎opportunities in the future.‎
He pointed out that technology will lead to the disappearance or decline of ‎some jobs, but in return it will create new jobs related to data analysis, ‎software, artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, which makes possessing ‎digital skills a necessity and not just an additional advantage.‎
In this context, the Academy offers more than 150 programs in the fields ‎of administrative sciences, computers and information, artificial intelligence, ‎cybersecurity, data analysis and e-marketing, along with languages and ‎translation, with specialized programs in hospital management, sports ‎management, medical insurance management, local administration and ‎others.‎
From Education to Future Opportunities
The activities of the Academy during August 2026 revealed a parallel ‎movement in more than one direction. In addition to the continuation of ‎student activities, the month witnessed an intensification of the introduction ‎of educational programs and the reception of new students, the opening ‎and continuation of admission in a number of specializations, as well as ‎the participation of the Academy's students in technical competitions, and ‎a review of the Department's vision for future jobs.‎
One of the most prominent events of the month was the participation of ‎students of the Faculty of Computing and Information in the ICPC global ‎programming competition held at the Arab Academy for Science, ‎Technology and Maritime Transport in Alexandria on August 18, where ‎two teams of students from the Academy qualified for the ECPC final. This ‎attendance reflects a trend towards transforming the study of computers ‎and software into a competitive practice that allows students to test their ‎skills outside the traditional academic framework. ‎
August also witnessed the continuation of application for graduate ‎programs at the Faculty of Administrative Sciences, in parallel with the ‎opening and continuation of admission to bachelor's and bachelor's ‎programs. The announcements included disciplines in computing, data ‎analysis, programming and software development, which are directly ‎related to digital transformation and new technological functions.‎
On August 17, the Academy offered opportunities to join the specialization ‎of data analysis at the Faculty of Computing and Information, with a focus ‎on data mining, programmatic statistics, and data visualization. It also ‎announced the specialization of programming and software development, ‎including web and mobile application development, software engineering, ‎and systems testing. (‎
In a parallel direction, the Academy announced during the month the ‎continuation of admission to the Faculty of Languages and Translation, ‎which opens for students an academic and professional path in the field of ‎languages, while the Academy originally provides a path for graduate ‎studies in English translation.‎
International quality.. Developing the educational and administrative ‎environment
Recent weeks have also witnessed Sadat Academy receiving the ‎international quality certificates "ISO 9001:2015" and "ISO 21001", in a ‎move that reflects a trend towards developing the management system, ‎education and services provided to students and beneficiaries.‎
ISO 9001:2015 certification is concerned with quality management ‎systems, while ISO 21001 is related to the management systems of ‎educational institutions, which reflects a trend towards the application of ‎institutional standards in management, the educational process and ‎continuous improvement. According to the available data, the validity of ‎the ISO 9001:2015 certificate began on July 27, 2026 and continues until ‎July 27, 2029, subject to periodic follow-up reviews.‎
The importance of this step does not stop when obtaining an accreditation ‎certificate, but extends to improving educational and administrative services ‎and processes, which is directly reflected in the experience of the student, ‎the student and the graduate.‎

______________
Three Education Pathways and Extended Graduate Opportunities
The Academy is characterized by the presence of three main colleges in ‎the tracks offered, the College of Administrative Sciences, the College of ‎Computers and Information, and the College of Languages and ‎Translation. These colleges offer various options starting from bachelor's ‎and bachelor's degrees and extending to master's, doctorate and diplomas ‎as follows.‎
Undergraduate stage
The College of Administrative Sciences grants a bachelor's degree ‎through the English and Arabic Divisions.‎
A – Bachelor of Administrative Sciences – English Language ‎Division
It has three specializations:‎
• International Business Management.‎
• Business Information Systems (bis).‎
• Accounting and Finance.‎
B – Bachelor of Administrative Sciences – Arabic Language Division
Business Administration
It includes four tracks:‎
• Funding and investment
• Marketing and E-Commerce
• Banking Management
• Petroleum and Energy Facilities Management Pathway.‎
In addition to :‎
• Human resources management
• Management Information Systems
• Economy
• Accounting:‎
• Public and local administration.‎
• Actuarial science.‎
This diversity reflects a trend towards not limiting administrative sciences to ‎the concept of "business management" in its traditional sense, but rather ‎dividing them into disciplines and paths related to different economic and ‎professional sectors.‎
Faculty of Computers and Information Disciplines most relevant to ‎digital transformation
The Faculty of Computing and Information Technology grants a bachelor's ‎degree in a range of technological disciplines, namely:‎
• Computer Science.‎
• Information systems
• Software Engineering.‎
• Artificial Intelligence ‎
• Cyber Security.‎
• Data Science.‎
The importance of this group is highlighted in its direct association with ‎digital transformation and new technological functions.‎
This trend was clearly demonstrated in August activities, with college ‎students participating in programming competitions, and introducing the ‎disciplines of data analysis, programming and software development to ‎students wishing to enroll in the academic year 2026/2027.‎
And it's not just the academic aspect; the disciplines themselves open up ‎different paths for the graduate, from software and information systems ‎development to artificial intelligence, data science, and cybersecurity.‎
College of Languages and Translation Four language pathways
The Faculty of Languages and Translation grants a bachelor's degree in ‎four linguistic disciplines:‎
• English
• Chinese
• Spanish
• Russian ‎
This diversity gives the student the opportunity to choose a language that ‎corresponds to his interests and professional ambition, with the possibility ‎of later completing the study in the field of translation through the ‎graduate programs available at the Academy.‎
Why is the Academy an opportunity for graduates?‎
The map of educational programs and activities witnessed by the ‎Academy during August reveals a model that does not treat graduation as ‎the end of the educational journey, but rather as a stage on which to ‎build.‎
A graduate in management sciences can move to precise specializations ‎in finance, investment, marketing, human resources, accounting and ‎auditing, information systems, healthy management, sports management, ‎supply chains, logistics, and others.‎
The computer and information graduate is in front of a range of fields that ‎are directly related to digital transformation, such as artificial intelligence, ‎data science, cybersecurity, software engineering and information systems.‎
As for the graduate of languages and translation, he can build an ‎academic and professional path that starts from studying language and ‎then extends to translation and postgraduate studies.‎
Here, an important point emerges in the philosophy of the Academy. Its ‎president stressed that obtaining a university degree alone is no longer ‎sufficient in the changing labor market, and that the student and the ‎graduate need to continue learning, training and building skills.‎
He also stressed that the Academy does not focus only on education, but ‎also works in training and preparing leaders, and provides training ‎programs for workers in government and private institutions in cooperation ‎with ministries, governorates, unions and various institutions.‎
The circle of benefiting from these disciplines is expanding because the ‎fields covered by the Academy are linked to multiple economic and ‎institutional sectors.‎
The disciplines of management, finance, accounting, human resources, ‎and marketing can be associated with business enterprises, banks, ‎corporations, the health sector, and government and non-profit ‎organizations.‎
Computing and information disciplines are related to software, data ‎analysis, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and information systems, which ‎are increasingly important areas with digital transformation.‎
In the field of languages, studying English, Chinese, Spanish, and Russian ‎can form the basis for multiple career paths, especially when combining ‎language and translation, management, or technology skills.‎
