     Under the patronage of Professor Dr. Wesam Nasr, Dean of the Faculty of Mass Communication at Cairo University, and the general supervision of Dr. Hala El-Sayed, Director of Professional Diploma Programs, the "Television Websites" course has showcased a series of innovative media projects.

    EG POST: Engineering Content for the Hybrid Era
    Researchers Enas Mohamed and Mai Mohamed introduced "EG POST," a platform built on a "Story-First" philosophy. The project aims to bridge the gap between television’s authority and digital fluidity, allowing the narrative itself to dictate the visual and editorial format. By utilizing cross-platform content, strategic analysis, and AI-driven interactive "capsules," EG POST offers a rich news experience designed for the modern audience`s behavior.


    Koushk Media: The Modern Digital Newsstand
    Bringing a cultural icon into the digital age, researchers Doaa Hammam and Nour Shaban presented "Koushk Media." Inspired by the traditional Egyptian newsstand (Koushk), the platform provides a unique "Snackable Content" experience tailored for smartphone users and social media audiences. With the slogan "Everything that matters in one stall," the project uses infographics and short videos to combine the reliability of traditional sources with the speed of digital access.
