At Zayed University we aim to deliver the next generation university experience by offering students an education that prepares them for future of work.

We strongly believe undergraduate education has to be multidimensional, it should not only challenge students academically, expose them to the diversity of global cultures but also enables them to develop broad knowledge and practical skills to solve the most complex issues of our time.

Zayed University is dedicated to ensuring that how we teach students relies on the most effective ways to learn, and that what we teach provides students with tools to be successful in the 21st century.

At Zayed University we will help students define their personal and professional goals through identifying and articulating their values, strengths, and interests and empowering them to learn how to connect to opportunities that will build their network, knowledge, and skills to accelerate their career trajectory.
