The Cairo University Council emphasized the necessity of carrying out the decisions the Deans Council had taken in its meeting before the start of the new university year. Those decisions have to do with activating the students activities, in order to be integrated with the education process, and making good use of the government subsidies to the university books and selling them to students at suitable prices.

The Cairo University Council considered some reports on the performance of the Cairo Universitys different departments in the last university year (2009/2010) and the action plan of every department in the 2010/2011 university year. One of the reports, which Cairo University Vice President for Education and Students Affairs put forward, referred to the role the Social Solidarity Fund played in providing the cash-strapped students and also students with special needs with financial and in-kind aids in the last university year. Those aids were worth 2.397.000 Egyptian Pounds. About 9 thousand students have benefitted from those aids, and that was in the framework of providing the university students with social care. The same report referred to the programs that had been implemented so as to develop the students capabilities and prepare them for the labor market, the expansion of activities done by students in order to help students acquire more skills, like the Scientific Research and Nurseries Competition, the government subsidies to the university books and selling them to students at lower prices in some faculties, the modernization of universities dormitories and upgrading the sports fields. The report also shed light on some of the most prominent features of the Students Sector plan for the 2010/2011 university year, which pointed out to the expansion of programs dedicated to developing the students capabilities and the increasing number of students who benefitted from those programs, staging the third version of the Scientific Research and Nurseries Competition, and the enlargement of subsidies to the University Book project for opening new faculties in the current university year.

On the other hand, the Postgraduate and Research Sectors report, presented by the vice president of the Postgraduate and Research Affairs Sector Dr. Hussein Khaled, provided an overview of the most prominent strategic achievements of the sector throughout the last university year. Some of these achievements were increasing the funding for the universitys ongoing research projects to become 85.000.000 Egyptian Pounds in the 2009/2010 university year, as against 65.000.000 Egyptian Pounds in the previous university year, increasing the number of research papers published around the world in the name of Cairo University to become 1033, doubling the values of the international publishing prizes for the teaching staff members, increasing subsidies to the master and PhD papers and the postgraduate students to become 15.000.000 Egyptian Pounds, starting work on implementing the Informational Exploration For Theses Project at the Cairo Universitys faculties and institutes, establishing an electronic database of all the libraries of the universitys faculties, and issuing the universitys international magazine for advanced research. The report referred to the fact that Cairo University had managed to keep its place among the best 500 universities throughout the world according to the 2010 QS World University Rankings for the fifth time in a row. Also, the Postgraduate and Research Sectors report reviewed the trends of the Five-Year Plan for Scientific Researches of Cairo University from 2011 to 2016 which focused on activating the project of the Informational Exploration for the master and doctorate theses over the past ten years and enhancing applied research.
