Minia University is a public university in Minia, Egypt. It was established in 1976 by virtue of Republican Decree No. (93), separating it from Assiut University. The campus is north of Minia. Its emblem is Nefertiti Bust.

The image of Queen Nefertiti was chosen within an open book as a logo for the university. The Nefertiti bust is also the slogan of Minya governorate due to its historical and ideological role that it played in the history of ancient Egypt. The head of Nefertiti was found in the Tel Amarna region, to the south of Minya Governorate.[5]
