Overview
Welcome to the Department of Marketing and Entrepreneurship. Our Department combines the subject areas of Marketing and Entrepreneurship, to deliver on key aspects of innovation, helping students and business keep pace with the high tech world around us.Through our expertise, we contribute high impact research making contributions to a diverse array of fields of national and international interest, such as entrepreneurial ecosystems, disruptive technological meaning and measurement and smart mobility and logistics.
We facilitate co-operation between key players in the field, the business community, institutions of knowledge and civil society – thus creating a ‘knowledge exchange hub’. We do this both informally and formally in our courses and outreach – we also do it across the University, particularly through our Minor in Entrepreneurship.
Our distinguished Faculty members are involved in teaching a variety of business courses in the Bachelor of Business Administration, Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Doctorate of Business Administration (DBA), and have supervised the dissertations of a number of Emirati business leaders and CEO’s of major Ministries and Corporations.Outside the classroom, our student clubs are vibrant and active and these work as a bridge between students, academics, graduates and the business world. If you are a student looking for a satisfying present and an exciting future; an academic looking to join an active research faculty; or someone looking to make a difference – come, join us!
