Ph.D. in Science EducationMy academic journey at CEDU has been a transformative experience that has deepened my understanding of science education and assessment. As a researcher and practitioner in the field, I have greatly benefited from the rigorous coursework, insightful discussions, and hands-on research opportunities. The guidance and expertise of the faculty, particularly in exploring large-scale assessments like TIMSS and PISA, have strengthened my analytical and critical thinking skills. One of the most valuable aspects of my experience at CEDU was the encouragement and support I received to publish my first research paper in a high-impact journal. This milestone has significantly contributed to my academic growth and confidence as a researcher. I am grateful for the knowledge, mentorship, and collaborative environment that continue to shape my academic and professional journey

Accelerated Master’s in Special Education (4+1)As someone deeply passionate about making a difference, joining the accelerated master’s program in special and gifted education was a natural step for me. This program has not only deepened my understanding of the people around me but also equipped me with invaluable skills like emotional intelligence and a heightened awareness of the efforts the United Arab Emirates is making to support and empower people of determination. The program has opened my eyes to the efforts being taken made to empower people of determination, and to providing a supportive environment that highlights their potential and abilities. To anyone considering this program, I would say: Special and gifted education is an incredibly rewarding and inspiring field. It offers the unique opportunity to change someone’s future for the better, it empowers those previously perceived as disabled to become active and influential members of their community.
