Al Ghurair University has given me the opportunity to pursue my higher studies due to its flexibility and model of educational system. I have taken up the Business Major and am truly thankful to all the effort and support provided by the professors in their mission to offer top notch academic knowledge and results.
The BBA program at AGU taught me the important business, marketing, financial and human resource concepts, gave me a practical experience to acquire the needed skills and a strong confidence to move forward in my career. There is no other university I’d rather recommend for a BBA program. It trains you to be motivated, knowledgeable, and professional.
With a broad scholarship and merits program and reasonable tuition fees offered, I was able to enroll at the university without worrying about cost of pursuing my studies at AGU.
Being a working student, it was very hard for me to be accepted in a university due to my work schedule. With evening courses available at AGU, I was able to pursue my studies. AGU proved that good education is available for everyone who has the will to learn.
I chose Al Ghurair University due to its extremely beneficial scholarship system. Professors and AGU staff have always helped and supported me through every step. AGU has enabled me to learn and grow stronger not just academically. The university timings help in providing a balance between being a full-time student and any other part time job.
What makes AGU a perfect environment to study, is this unique relationship between faculty and students, and the kind of support that professors continuously extend to us.
Though I graduated from a CBSE curriculum with focus on commerce and math, my passion changed from business toward architecture. AGU made my dream a reality by offering me science subjects unlike other universities and allowed me to excel in architecture.
With so many great options in Dubai, AGU was my best choice with the variety of courses it offers alongside the reasonable tuition fees. Little did I know at the time how helpful and friendly it is here! I am proud to call the UAE home; a place where we continuously work internationally across the globe and as such, studying International Business would mean I am able to add value in the UAE Market.
As a new learning style has been introduced due to situation and pandemic of corona virus, our university has made us informed for e learning timely. We have scheduled classes and sessions and doctors and assistants are available to guide us and teach us. We are discussing our projects, assignments, and models with them to have feedback and if required any changes.
We are working on those changes and again have a meeting to display and explain. We have almost completed our tasks as we are approaching towards our finals for this semester.
Our university and doctors have always supported us in our learning and make us feel connected with our sessions.
When I joined the MBA Program in Project Management, I found a very distinct experience in a very wonderful academic university environment in which I felt a sense of belonging among students. The professors are very cooperating and offer the students high-quality teaching classes at the highest modern administrative standards. The environment is very friendly, effective, and efficient and enhance the capacities for learning and administrative development.
As a 3rd year student, I feel that the steps our university has taken to compensate for the lack of physical classes is great. Moreover, our Professors have been extremely approachable & understanding about the situation, and trying their best to make it a welcome, productive environment during this trying time. The IT department has been very helpful and devoted to making the transition as smooth & seamless as possible.
Classes on video calls have allowed us to replicate the same degree of communication from the safety of our homes. It is possible to interact with our professors the same way. Of course, we must accept the shortcomings that come with this for the time being, but I am relieved to say that even during a global pandemic, the quality of education wasn’t compromised.
What I like most is that the professors at the College of Business guide us, communicate with us and are like family to their students. Professors have a creative way of working at a high level and this is very important to all of us. The reason I chose AGU was the good environment between students and professors and the ease of communication.
In terms of how Al Ghurair University handles the current situation, I must proudly say that the staff are truly doing their best to ensure that all students are receiving the best and most proper education that they need via online platforms, such as Blackboard Learn and Google Meet. It may be difficult at times, but we are all able to quickly adapt to this new style of learning.
Considering that the issue we are facing is fairly new, and we are all experiencing it for the very first time, I would say that we are adjusting quite well and doing everything that is deemed necessary to quickly get back to the life we normally had.
I have been a student of Al Ghurair University since 2014. I have completed my BSc at Al Ghurair University and currently I am doing my MBA in Project Management. The reason I chose Al Ghurair University is because of the professionalism and flexibility of the faculty. The courses are interesting and interactive, and the faculty is very helpful and supportive.
The four years I invested at Al Ghurair University have been among the best years of my life. Not only have I cherished the university environment, but also I evolved myself to acquire profound knowledge required for the industry. I am grateful to all the faculty members of the Department of Computer Engineering and commend their efforts in shaping me and guiding me along the way. The College of Engineering & Computing has a notable infrastructure which provided me with a great platform to excel professionally. It is no surprise that Al Ghurair University has set some benchmarks in academia and is keen on achieving excellence and extending premier education in the UAE.
My four years at Al Ghurair University have been memorable. It is a place for learning and seizing opportunities, getting international exposure and many other co-curricular activities. Al Ghurair University faculty members always believe in helping and guiding their students. I would like to thank Al Ghurair University management, faculty and staff for their support and for providing me with a platform to enhance my skills in the field of Computer Science and Engineering.
AGU is a multicultural university in a diverse, friendly and efficient place that suits everyone. The Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems program was very interesting with the mix of IT and business subjects, and business was something I have always wanted to do and learn.
CIS itself is also really well-structured and lecturers provide all kinds of learning resources to help us consolidate knowledge in different ways. They are always happy to help with clarifying any information and they genuinely want to help us do well. They were very professional and able to give their best in a perfect way, their qualifications reflect how easily it will be for them to share the knowledge they have. It is nice to feel how a great asset they were to us during our studies journey!
I joined Al Ghurair University (AGU) in September 2016 and have been studying since for four years now and as a soon to be graduate student, the experience that I have gained at AGU is definitely unique on all levels.
Throughout my journey of studying as Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) student at AGU, I have gained lots of skills from time management to team building skills and design skills. In addition, quality education, problem-solving, critical thinking and communication skills I learned have helped me grow both professionally and personally. Furthermore, what is more special about the Computer Science And Engineering program is that our professors treat us with the utmost respect and care as they support us all the way by passing on their academic expertise as well as giving us recommendations and suggestions for the future , be it continuing studies through a master’s degree or finding the right job and the right attitude for that job. Hence, AGU remains unique because it encourages ambition and hard work in students and teaches them the importance of self-development and growth as it provides variety of scholarships for all students.
