Global Education

Global education is an essential component of the four-year curriculum at NYU Abu Dhabi. It is comprised of a sequence of intellectually rigorous, culturally and linguistically engaging research-focused learning opportunities that complement students' coursework.

The constellation of NYUAD global education experiences includes semester-long study away programs, January-Term programs (called J-Terms), and course-related study trips in the UAE as well as the broader Middle East, which may be combined with J-Term or spring semester courses.

Global education opportunities for students are managed by the Office of Global Education.
