A student-centric campus in the heart of Dubai — clubs, sports, culture, and community, every semester of the year.
AUE is built around its students. Beyond the classroom, campus life comes alive through student clubs, sports teams, and a packed calendar of events year-round. And with Dubai just outside the gates, there's no shortage of world-class entertainment — restaurants, amusements, arts, and culture — minutes from campus.
Run through the Department of Student Affairs — clubs, athletics, competitions, study abroad trips, and a full calendar of annual events.

Every college and department at AUE runs its own orientation program for new students — covering the college's study plan, academic policies, and everything you need to feel at home from day one.
Attendance is strongly encouraged for every incoming student. It's your chance to get oriented before classes begin — and to meet the people you'll be spending the next few years with.
