A leading university. Has established its name for the community with flexible course structure and suitable fees. Renovation has been done for not only building accreditation of programs is attained. Vital location in Al Ain City. Suitable fees and study hours. I'm proud that my 2 kids are students in there.

I graduated from Al Ain University three months ago from the College of Education, preparing an Arabic language and Islamic education teacher, and I bear witness to them that they made a great effort to provide education in difficult circumstances. They provided for us and gave us all their energy, but the doctors of Arabic language and Islamic education were keen to provide us with the best.... Thank you, Al Ain University.

It's arguably the best university in the UAE. Their faculty, campus and variety of programs is truly enlightening. I signed up for the Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Studies a year ago and so far have had a great experience.
