My Studies
Freedom to Construct Your Own Education
One of the perks of a liberal arts education at NYU Abu Dhabi is the freedom to construct your own education. NYUAD students are encouraged to explore non-traditional course paths and combine unrelated majors and minors like computer science and theater, or physics and philosophy.
Find unexpected intersections across disciplines, be creative and show leadership in making your choices. That's what makes undergraduate experiences at NYUAD as diverse as its student body.
