Prof. Abdel Fattah Saoud’s keenness to have university students participate in these seminars and participate in the openings of national projects comes because it forms students’ awareness, adds experience to them, and helps them develop their abilities to be eyewitnesses to the openings of a number of huge national projects and unprecedented achievements, given that they are the present of our beloved Egypt and her future.
