“I love stimulating students through practice with real-life scenarios.”
"After many years working in business, I was very happy to return to academia. I enjoy being able to use my knowledge of industry and experience as a professional trainer to develop my students. My classes are more like workshops rather than conventional lectures. I love stimulating students through practice with real-life scenarios.
I am constantly looking for ways to improve the student learning experience. Most recently, for example, I helped develop new courses on Innovation & Entrepreneurship, as well as an extra-curricular workshop series on personal leadership skills in collaboration with Student Affairs. My schedule is extremely busy and I love every minute of what I do."

Tuition is based upon the College and/or Department classification as opposed to the course classification or level. Tuition rates for undergraduate students vary from the tuition rates for graduate students.
The tuition fee calculations are an example only and are based on the assumption that elective courses will be taken with the College that the student is taking their major with. However, if the student selects elective courses outside of this College, the total cost payable may increase or decrease to reflect the tuition rate of the College where the elective is delivered.
Costs of books and supplies are not included in the Tuition and Fees. Students at Abu Dhabi University are also required to pay certain fees and other costs to attend the University. Abu Dhabi University reserves the right to change tuition and fee rates at any time. A tuition schedule is published prior to registration for each semester.
