Welcome to Abu Dhabi University’s Global Engagement Program (GEP) website. The GEP represents only the most recent initiative at ADU in bringing together top academics from around the world to collaborate with our faculty and with each other in the ongoing effort to build productive, high-quality collaborations of global reach. We at ADU launched GEP during the pandemic in 2021 with a series of high-profile virtual events, where hundreds of colleagues from around the globe had an opportunity to discover the high quality of academic engagement to be found at our university.
Now we are moving forward with plans to deepen the friendships begun in those sessions, to build upon these new scholarly relationships, and to explore ways to expand and strengthen our partnerships to the mutual benefit of all participants. I hope you share with me the excitement and anticipation of engaging with an ever-widening circle of colleagues across the planet in this dynamic new network for global engagement. Thank you for your engagement.
