The United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) is moving ahead with its plans for the 'UAE Innovates Month 2022' in February.
The university's programme of activities and events takes government initiatives to establish a culture of innovation in the UAE and promote community engagement in initiatives that will support national strategies for the next 50 years.
Dr. Khawla Al Kaabi, the UAEU's Chief Innovation Officer, said, "Innovation and creativity have become a way of life in the UAE and are pivotal to the UAE's plans and directions for the future.
We are proud to take part in the Government's 'UAE Innovates Month 2022' in February alongside other universities, federal and local government organisations, and entities from the private sector.
We are excited by the eighty initiatives and events that we will launch and organise, hoping that these will generate innovative and unique ideas for the country".
Dr Khawla added, "Science is the foundation for the progress and development of nations. Therefore, at UAEU, we base our academic programmes and pedagogy on scientific research and innovation.
We prioritise investments in preparing future generations of graduates with the capability to progress global economic transformation through innovation and R&D, with leadership skills, and with positive attitudes towards creativity and holding responsibilities."
