| Abstract | ||
| This research develops a comprehensive model for applying competitive advantage in Egyptian universities to enhance their academic and administrative performance. The study identifies key dimensions of competitive advantage, including cost leadership, differentiation, innovation, and operational efficiency, which collectively address the challenges faced by higher education institutions in Egypt. These dimensions aim to improve educational quality, optimize resources, and create a distinctive position for universities in the competitive academic landscape. A descriptive analytical methodology was employed to assess the current practices of competitive advantage in Egyptian universities and their potential for further development. Advanced statistical methods were used to analyze data, and AMOS software was applied to measure the relationships between the dimensions and their impact on overall university performance. The findings demonstrate significant correlations, revealing that adopting strategies aligned with these dimensions can drive operational excellence, foster innovation, and strengthen competitive positioning. The study concludes with a proposed model that serves as a practical guide for Egyptian universities to implement competitive advantage strategies effectively. This model emphasizes the integration of modern management practices and innovative solutions to ensure sustainable development and adaptability to dynamic educational needs. Recommendations include the adoption of strategic cost-saving measures, investment in innovative academic programs, and fostering a culture of differentiation and continuous improvement across all levels of university operations. | ||
