ACADEMIC AND PERSONAL CONDUCT
UAEU expects all members of its academic community, including students, to function according to the highest academic, ethical, and
professional standards. Accordingly, students have certain rights and responsibilities, which are described by the “Student Code of
Conduct” in the Student Affairs and Deanship section of the University’s Policies and Procedures and, therefore, graduate students are
responsible for their own academic and personal conduct consistent with the policies.
The Code of Conduct specifies actions that would be classed as misconduct (academic or non-academic) for which an offending
individual or student organization would be subject to disciplinary sanctions. The Procedures are intended to ensure consistency and
fairness for every student in the University through consistency in the adjudication of cases of student misconduct.
GRIEVANCES AND APPEALS
UAEU is committed to the fair and equitable treatment of students in all of its academic and administrative processes. Accordingly,
graduate students who have legitimate grievances or appeals may pursue them by submitting their claims in writing with official
supporting documents to the Dean of their college.
According to the University’s Policies and Procedures on “Student Academic Grievances and Appeals”, an “Academic Grievance” is a
claim by a student of mistreatment or unfair treatment in an academic or enrollment matter. And an “Academic Appeal” is a claim by
a student of incorrect or erroneous application of a University academic policy or a request for an exception to a University academic
policy.
The Student Academic Grievances and Appeals Committee handles all academic grievances and appeals university wide.
Details on the procedures for processing appeals and the work of the Committee can be found in the Procedures of the
“Student Academic Grievances and Appeals” Policy.

facilities. ID Cards are the property of UAEU and a student must return his/her card to the University upon graduation or any
