The study aimed to identify the reality of knowledge sharing among faculty members in the theoretical and applied for colleges at South Valley University by identifying the degrees of knowledge among faculty members at South Valley University, degrees of sharing, the availability of skills in the study community, means and channels of sharing, areas, and motives of sharing, in addition to identifying the obstacles of their knowledge sharing and their suggestions to overcome them.  To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive analytical approach was used.  Also, the questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection distributed into 6 sections and 6 axes.
The study sample consisted of (181) faculty members (i.e., professor, assistant professor, lecturer) at South Valley University in Qena that constitute 20% of its members. The results of the study showed that 55.8% had moderate knowledge of the concept 'knowledge sharing' , 26.5% of them had great knowledge, and 14.9% have little knowledge, while 2.8% have no knowledge of that concept. The results also found that most of the faculty members share their knowledge with colleagues of the same specialization, while 11.6% do not share their knowledge. Also, it was found that “face-to-face conversations" is the highest degree of agreement with a standard deviation of (0.52), while the least means of knowledge sharing is "personal blogs" with a standard deviation of (0.49). The study presented several proposals, including the need to provide material and moral incentives for faculty members, activate the collective research system, and give it a great deal of importance.
