The UAS Business School Fair brought together 25 business schools and universities from around the globe, giving our high school students valuable insights, information and resources as they explore their future pathways, particularly in business-related fields.

Students took part in a range of interactive sessions, including:

🎓 A Q&A panel with undergraduate business students from RIT Dubai and Emirates Aviation University

📣 “Think Like a Marketer: The Brand Challenge” with Dr. Pakinam Nazmy, Assistant Professor of Marketing at American University in Dubai

💡 “Future-Ready Skills for Tomorrow’s Leaders” with Dr. Manuel Fernandez, Professor of Finance at EM Normandie Business School

…and so much more!

It’s a joy to nurture our students’ talents and interests in business while helping them discover the possibilities that lie ahead. We can’t wait to see the next generation of brilliant business minds join the UAS alumni community! 💙🦂

The little things. The big impact.

For World Teachers’ Day, we asked our students one simple question: What’s your favorite thing about your teacher, and why?

Their answers say it all. From the laughs and encouragement to the lessons that stay with them long after the school day ends, our teachers make a difference every single day.

Today, we celebrate every teacher who inspires, supports, challenges and believes in our students.

Happy World Teachers’ Day to our incredible UAS teachers!

What happens when we step away from the usual classroom structure and simply give ourselves the freedom to create?

Our high school art students had the opportunity to work alongside visiting artist A.R.M. Holding in partnership with Art Dubai in a workshop focused on storytelling, imagination, and creative risk-taking.

Exploring a new medium with fewer rules and no predetermined outcome, students were encouraged to trust the process, experiment freely, and let their ideas evolve along the way.

The result? Unexpected ideas, personal stories, creative discoveries, and a reminder that sometimes the most exciting art happens when we don’t know exactly where we’re going.

A huge thank you A.R.M. Holding, and Art Dubai for inspiring our students to explore, experiment, and create without limits! 🎨

From UAS Valedictorian and IB Top Scorer to celebrating graduation with lifelong friends. 💙🦂

We’re incredibly proud to celebrate UAS alumna Caitlin Chidiac, who recently graduated from UCL with a degree in Sports and Exercise Medical Sciences. She is now preparing to begin her Master’s in Sports Engineering at Loughborough University, combining her passion for sport and science as she takes the next step in her academic journey.

During her time at UAS, Caitlin discovered her passion for sport and science, developed her creativity through visual arts, and embraced the opportunities that helped shape the path she is on today.

“UAS was such an important part of growing up for me. It gave me the space to discover what I was interested in, become more independent and build the confidence to challenge myself, which eventually led me to study Sports and Exercise Medical Sciences at UCL and now a Master’s in Sports Engineering at Loughborough.”

For Caitlin, some of her favourite memories weren’t just about the achievements. They were the everyday moments with friends, growing up together and creating memories that have lasted far beyond the UAS campus. Seeing those same friendships continue as they celebrate milestones together is a wonderful reminder of what makes the UAS community so special.

To our current students: the friendships you build today, the passions you discover and the opportunities you embrace could shape your future in ways you never expect.

Congratulations, Caitlin! We can’t wait to see what your future holds.
