American University in the Emirates (UAE)

The American University in the Emirates (AUE) originated in the academic year 2006-2007 as the “American College in the Emirates” (ACE). The College’s initial mission was, “ACE is committed to offer quality, multidisciplinary, and career-oriented academic degree programs, that prepare students for successful employment and continuing higher education.” As a self-financed institution, ACE awarded two-year associate degrees in media, information technology, business, and design. The United Arab Emirates and Dubai governments and business sectors accepted graduates with associate degrees for intermediate and entry-level employment at that time.

AUE is dedicated to be one of the leading higher educational institutions locally and regionally, providing an integrated pathway for students to become creative, effective, and productive members of the community.It is a coeducational undergraduate and graduate degree-granting institution committed to preparing students as global citizens for future career aspirations and lifelong learning through quality teaching, research, and service opportunities.
