Career Development

The Career Development Center (CDC) plays an integral role in the undergraduate experience at NYU Abu Dhabi, providing guidance, advising, programs, and resources to students during their time at NYUAD, and beyond.

Students are supported in an iterative process of discovering and refining their strengths, choosing a major, and gaining professional experience — from developing a solid CV, to meeting industry insiders, to applying to graduate school or global awards.
