HIGHER COLLEGES OF TECHNOLOGY

The Higher Colleges are a dynamic and thriving institution at the forefront of efforts to promote education throughout the United Arab Emirates. They seek to provide advanced education in fields that are of real value to the UAE and its people.

In particular, they aim to produce graduates who are professional in their approach, who are able to adapt quickly to the demands of the work-place and can contribute materially to the economic development of their country.

The Higher Colleges have grown dramatically since its initial enrolment of 239 students and today have expanded to 11 campuses across the country offering a wide variety of interesting programmes to well over 12,200 young Emirati men and women. The colleges, located in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Fujairah and Ras Al Khaimah, have kept their eyes firmly on the need to maintain quality and consistency both among staff and students.

The effective use of modern technologies is a key to the Higher Colleges' success and it has been this focus that has enabled HCT graduates to develop such a high reputation among UAE employers.

Zayed University was founded to prepare leaders who will foresee the possibilities and capture the opportunities that will create the future of the United Arab Emirates.

Zayed University is committed to provide an outcomes-based learning environment that encourages and supports students' academic success. Faculty, staff, students and the larger community work together as a learning community to achieve learning goals.

Students learn through a constructive process that encourages them to develop understanding, not just to accept information. They are encouraged to take increasing responsibility for their own learning, to become active participants and leaders in the learning community, to apply their knowledge in real-world contexts, and to master the art of learning from self-reflection.

Zayed University's mission is to produce graduates who are masters of the computer, well grounded in the academic disciplines, fully prepared in a professional field and capable of providing leadership in the home, community and nation
