For more than 25 years, American University of Sharjah (AUS) has promoted ideas, research and creative work that have inspired development and change, driven by our core belief that tomorrow matters. AUS was founded in 1997 by His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed AlQasimi, UAE Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah. The embodiment of His Highness’ vision, AUS is a place where students

are nurtured and encouraged to excel academically, thrive socially, celebrate their cultural diversity, and have a positive influence in their communities. Located in University City, Sharjah, AUS is a not-for-profit, independent, institution of higher education formed on the American model. We offer 28 majors and 45 minors at the undergraduate level, 15 master's degrees programs and four PhD programs through the College of Architecture, Art and Design; the College of Arts and Sciences; the College of Engineering; and the School of Business Administration. These programs are designed to meet the challenges of a competitive and dynamic business and industrial environment.

Her Highness Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi has officially launched AUS Press at the Warsaw International Book Fair, right as Sharjah takes center stage as the Guest of Honour.

AUS Press is the university's brand-new publishing arm, built to share research, support translations, and connect our regional culture with the rest of the world. To kick things off, Her Highness unveiled its very first book, AUS 25, a special commemorative volume telling the story of our campus from 1997 all the way to today.

We are so proud to see the intellectual and creative voice of AUS crossing borders and reaching readers worldwide.

Here’s a look back on CEN’s last couple of months!

From raising awareness at the "Pink October – Bound by the Ribbon" to celebrating top academic achievers at the CEN Honors Convocation, the timeline has been packed with major milestones. The college officially became the partner for World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development 2026, launched the new Women in Engineering Society, and hosted an amazing series of TEDx talks. We also got futuristic with a new robotics partnership with Terminus Group bringing physical AI to AUS, while student initiatives kept the energy going with events like "CEN Unlocked" and joining the global IEEE Blockchain network.
