It reinforces ADU's position as one of the most prestigious higher education institutions in the region with its dedication to innovation and excellence in teaching, scientific research and community service, as well as its portfolio of diverse and internationally benchmarked programs that prepare graduates who will help shape the national development process in line with the policy agenda of Abu Dhabi's Government and the Abu Dhabi Economic Vision 2030." Kroma added: "Open Week is an opportunity for students to get informed about the University's curriculum spanning diverse academic majors and shortlist their choices for the upcoming academic year. The event also enables staff and faculty to meet prospective students and answer any queries they may have regarding ADU's value-added initiatives such as the student exchange program, cultural program, and student affairs. "Open Week paves the way for high school students to gain first-hand insights about the University and its requirements. As is the norm today with universities globally, ADU hosts Open Week to support students to smoothly make the transition from school life to university life and advise them on the best ways to achieve academic excellence in the new environment." |
