This annual exhibition aims to support students in entrepreneurship projects, encourage the students of MSA University to be entrepreneurs and to participate in exhibitions which supports the Egyptian Identity and Handicrafts industries and finally to support the use of local materials in handicrafts industries. Moreover, Torathna Exhibition’s activities include displaying fashion designs inspired from heritage industries, displaying multifunctional furniture pieces, and displaying handicrafts scarfs and bags that express the Egyptian identity.
Under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Tarek Saleh, the Dean of the Faculty of Arts & Design and the Head of The Center of Excellency, Dr. Walaa, and A.L. Nada Ahmed Arisha, four students were able to participate in Torathna Exhibition from the Faculty of Arts and design fashion and interior design department along with a participation from the Faculty of Management Sciences.
The students were Abdelrahman Abdelsabour (Fashion and Scraf designers), Yasmine Ibrahime and Taif Al Mokadem (Multifunctional Furniture Piece), and Abdelrahman (Bags Designer). The students were happy to participate and their feedback was that they were proud to be a part of the Torathna Exhibition which expresses the identity of Egypt and its handicrafts industries and that they were more motivated to being future Entrepreneurs and making a startup project in Egypt.

October University for Modern Sciences and Arts | MSA - Participation in (our heritage exhibition) Center of Excellence for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship - Faculty of Arts and Design
On Saturday morning, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi inaugurated an exhibition of our heritage, organized by Egyptian projects
The University participates in with 6 projects for the start ups entrepreneurship at the invitation of the Fund for the Development of Medium, Small and Micro Industries
Funded Projects
Radio sonde is one time used device used by the air metrological Authority to measure different parameter in the different upper layers up to 30 Km upwards , Egypt imports about 5000 device annually , group of MSA students in the faculty of Engineering has implemented this device as graduation project with great success under supervision of Dr said mabrouk as the project is funded from STDF to be implemented as product on two years.
First Egyptian agriculture weather station made in Egypt by MSA graduates from faculty of Engineering through their start up company “short circuit design co “ ,under supervision of Dr Said Mabrouk in by effective and competitive cost lower from the foreign stations by 60 % , this stations is used for measuring different parameters for weather and soil as temp , humidity , wind speed , wind direction , soil temp , soil moisture , EC , soil salenty and other parameter as needed , these parameters are sent on local server , web server ,or cloud as the clients need , many applications done on the data sent for diseases forecasting, calculating the Eto which indicates the water quantity required for irrigation , Fertilization status , affect and many different applications can be done for smart agriculture.
As red palm weevils is huge problem in agriculture that affect the palm tree in Egypt and most of countries, Team from MSA graduate under supervision of Dr said Mabrouk has developed a device using safe electromagnetic waves to get rid of the weevils instead of using chemicals that is very harmful to the tree and the device has proved its success by testing it in many farms and analysis for the results in red palm weevils research center.
First Egyptian Data logger made by MSA graduate under supervision of DR said mabrouk , Data logger is universal Data acquisition unit that can be interface with any type of sensor analogue or digital to record data internally in its storage and sending these data to a server or cloud , it used in monitoring and control in different fields as agriculture , Irrigation , Aviation , Industry , Petroleum companies , Environment . Also it has user friendly user interface “GUI” to be configured easily to fit the client’s needs.
As the million and half Fadden’s National project’s needs, Egypt plans to have monitoring network for the water level and quality for all water wells to save the wasted water and control the overdraft usage. Therefore faculty of Engineering under the supervision of Dr said mabrouk has developed prototype for water well monitoring and control system that monitor the water level and send these real time data to the central station and send warning in case of excessive usage of water ,also it can be remotely controlled. The system has been tested in the ministry of irrigation by the MSA graduates team and the technical Engineers from the ministry, the results were incredible that the system accuracy was better than the foreign systems.
Smart irrigation network system to serve the 1.5 million Fadden’s that measure the water requirements according to the crop type using the embedded system and getting feedback from the soil to control the irrigation process , this will optimize about 40% of the irrigation water consumption.
By the cooperation with the ministry of military production and ministry of Environments ,Monitoring system network to the factories remnants through data logger installed in each factory that measure different parameter indicates the water pollution and send these data to the central station database in the ministry of Environment through GSM network .
