The Faculty of Art Education at Helwan University is one of the most prestigious institutions specializing in training art education teachers at both local and regional levels. It combines a rich history with continuous academic development. The faculty’s beginnings date back to 1932, when a drawing department was established at the Women's Teachers Institute, followed by a similar department at the Men’s Teachers Institute in 1935. In 1966/1967, the two institutes merged under the name *"Higher Institute of Art Education,"* later becoming the *"Faculty of Art Education"* when Helwan University was established.
