Students were given the opportunity to explore the University meet with undergraduate students
Khalifa University hosted 70 top high school students from around the UAE at its Abu Dhabi campus on May 26th. Grade-12 students currently pursuing a science track from the Emirate of Abu Dhabi the Northern Emirates and Applied Technology High School (ATHS) campuses were invited based on their performance in their first and second term results.
Students along with their parents and school representatives had the opportunity to listen to speeches by Dr. Abdullatif Al Shamsi the Managing Director of the Institute of Applied Technology (IAT) and Dr. Arif Al Hammadi Executive Director of the Higher Education Sector at Abu Dhabi Education Council. Visiting students were provided with Lego Robots which they can assemble later and use at the exciting Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) camp that Khalifa University will be hosting in August.
Perhaps most exciting of all was that the top two students accepted to join Khalifa University after applying at the event will be able to accompany Khalifa University’s undergraduate field trip to Japan this summer.
The goal of the event was to highlight Khalifa University’s offerings to the students and give them an idea of what student life is like. The day also included peer-to-peer conversations with current Khalifa University students and a tour of the campus as well as an opportunity to apply online for admissions.
“Khalifa University has a reputation for accepting the best students who are taught by the best faculty and who go on to become leaders of industry ” said Dr. Mohammed Al Mualla Senior Vice President of Research and Development. “Inviting these students to our campus is a fantastic opportunity to show them why we have such high standards and what they will achieve if they choose to come here. Attending Khalifa University is a step in the right direction for their future and the future of the country.”
Students visiting Khalifa University also got a chance to benefit from the Khalifa University Direct Entry Reward Scheme UAE national students are eligible to receive 100% of their tuition and a generous monthly stipend. Direct entry students are ones who will not have to participate in the University’s Preparatory Program and rather start their freshman year immediately.
Khalifa University offers several extensive undergraduate programs in Aerospace Engineering Biomedical Engineering Civil Engineering Electrical and Electronic Engineering with a concentration in Power Systems Industrial and Systems Engineering Mechanical Engineering and Computer Engineering with a concentration in Software Systems.
