description The concept of social responsibility is no longer limited to charitable and voluntary activity, but in fact it has become a broader and more comprehensive concept that includes solutions to the economic, social and environmental problems of societies. Moreover, sustainable development cannot be achieved in isolation from the close relationship between higher education, its institutions and society. Universities are essential as a pillar of society, as they play a pivotal role in raising awareness of social responsibility among their students, faculty and other employees, in a way that causes them to act as social personalities who defend collective perspectives and do not choose to embrace individual thinking. Accordingly, the current research paper aims to provide a conceptual framework that clarifies the role of social responsibility of universities in sustainable development, dealing with the concept of social responsibility and its various aspects. The paper presents a number of recommendations that ensure that universities are strengthened in the social responsibility that is expected to achieve and support sustainable development efforts. The programs provided as an example to Future University in Egypt must also meet social needs, instead of expressing a purely economic perspective, they should contribute to the sustainable development of the context in which the university operates.
