Solving the mystery of ‘local’ vs ‘global’ standards:

ADU’s world ranking proves students can enjoy the best of both worlds

One big mystery when it comes to choosing a university is why many people automatically assume that “global” standards and “local” standards mean two different things.  

While there is sometimes a tendency to assume that “global” standards are superior to “local” standards, the prestigious QS ranking begs to differ - after ranking Abu Dhabi University among the elite of the very best institutions in the world.   

But that’s only half the story. A closer examination of the other institutions on the list reveals that some have been in existence for centuries. ADU is the youngest and its 10 years are a mere grain of sand in the desert of time - making its ranking even more impressive. Yes, some students are enchanted by the rich history of such institutions. But one thing more thrilling than reading about history is to actually make history, and the current ADU students know they are shaping the future one amazing day at a time.

We are accumulating experience with every day that passes, but our youthful enthusiasm, fun-loving student community and endless curiosity will keep our institution “forever young”. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, our international accreditation process is at an advanced stage.

In the UAE, ADU was the very first university to receive the Sheikh Khalifa Excellence Award for its tireless pursuit of perfection. Students love to be unique, and ADU’s unique programs give them qualifications that stand out in the job market - whether in Engineering, Business or much more.

The main goal of any student is to get a highly rewarding and exciting job, and ADU graduates are doing exactly that - thanks to their superb reputation among employers, which will lead to our graduates becoming the “movers and shakers” in companies that are market heavyweights.

So whether you want top-notch global standards or a vibrant local experience, at ADU you don’t have to choose - just have both!
