College of Law

Dean's Message

The College of Law offers a Bachelor of Law and two Masters of Public and Private Law. It is dedicated to achieving the following goals: designing programs and teaching methods that align with UAE society and the Arab world to meet the region's needs and equip students with essential skills for the job market and its challenges. We are committed to adhering to international accreditation standards and ensuring quality assurance to attain excellence in law. While most courses are taught in Arabic, some are taught in English due to the demand for English proficiency in specific legal jobs.

Students acquire knowledge through various teaching methods, including theoretical lectures and internal and external internships, bridging the gap between theory and practice. Additionally, students have the opportunity to engage with real legal cases and participate in moot courts. The College of Law is dedicated to recruiting qualified faculty in all branches of law to meet the needs of the Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Dubai campuses. We are also working towards offering a Doctorate in Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Law, considered the highest-recognized degree in international universities.

The College of Law and the Ministry of Justice have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to train and qualify law graduates from all UAE universities for lawyer's licensure.

Sincerely,

Prof. Talaat Mohamed Dowidar
Acting Dean - College of Law
