Overview

Since 1977, we have been welcoming students to study with us at UAE University. From humble beginnings with only a handful of degree programs, we have grown to become one of the highest internationally ranked Colleges at the University (according to the QS and THES rankings).

The College s degree programs are accredited by the AACSB International. AACSB members are only AACSB-accredited if they are able to satisfy a wide-ranging, rigorous set of quality standards. As such, the College is able to demonstrate that it provides a relevant, challenging curriculum delivered by faculty of a high caliber, and excellent educational and career opportunities. The graduates we produce are therefore highly skilled and very desirable to employers.  We were the first institution in the United Arab Emirates to be accredited by the AACSB, back in 1993.

The College has 82 full-time faculty members drawn from around the world and more than 30000 undergraduate and postgraduate students working and studying across 5 interdisciplinary academic departments (Innovation, Technology & Entrepreneurship, Leadership & Organizational Agility, Analytics in the Digital Era and Innovation in Government & Society). The College also teaches in 2 locations: Al Ain and Abu Dhabi and has a global network of influential alumni.

The College prides itself in supporting the UAE in its commitment to being a knowledge-based economy in which education and research play a critical, central role. While we embody all of the traditional aspects of a university-based business school, we believe that true learning comes from being able to apply the theory you learn in the classroom to the real world of business. Through our valued public and private sector partners, our students can take on a wide variety of internships, placements and projects that support their learning, and provide opportunities and networks that can help change their future.
