Abu Dhabi University (ADU) recognizes that many of the world’s most pressing challenges require solutions that integrate expertise from multiple disciplines. Challenges such as climate change, healthcare innovation, digital transformation, and sustainable economic growth cannot be addressed within the boundaries of a single field.
ADU has therefore developed a dynamic interdisciplinary research ecosystem that brings together expertise from engineering, computer science, health sciences, business, and the social sciences. Through research institutes, collaborative research groups, advanced laboratories, and strong partnerships with industry and healthcare institutions, ADU fosters interdisciplinary research that generates innovative technologies, scientific discoveries, and societal impact.
This interdisciplinary ecosystem aligns with:
The drive to address topics relevant to national development, and to support researchers in the production of knowledge and research-based problem solving, is at the heart of our research activity.
We endeavour to conduct research that is:
Vision: To be an exemplary University with a culture of creativity and enquiry that drives all that we do and benefits our faculty, students and broader society.
Mission: Our faculty and students engage in research that enriches the teaching and learning experience and invest in our academic community to support research excellence and the delivery of an enquiry-based curriculum.
