Canadian University Dubai
About Company
Canadian University Dubai (CUD) offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs based on a world-leading international curriculum. Located in the city’s vibrant business district, CUD gives students the unique opportunity to obtain a first-class Canadian education while experiencing the dynamic lifestyle of Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Canadian University Dubai (CUD) opened its doors in 2006 to bring the world-class Canadian education system to the dynamic city of Dubai. As a pioneering initiative, CUD was created to make a meaningful and lasting contribution to UAE society.
CUD has its foundations in a partnership between Centennial College and Athabasca University; two Canadian institutions that set out to unite these distant lands through the shared vision of excellence in education. Building on these early foundations, University Chancellor, Mr. Buti Saeed Al Ghandi, and President, Prof. Karim Chelli came together to establish Canadian University Dubai.
