Al Ghurair University

About Al Ghurair University

In 1999, Al Ghurair University opened its doors in the UAE, as one of the country’s first private universities, with a mission to elevate the UAE’s learning environment, and to help students achieve their greatest potential. Over the last two decades, the UAE’s higher education sector has grown exponentially, with the country now hosting some of the world’s leading academic institutions. With the region becoming recognised as a global hub for education, the Al Ghurair family is re-focusing their efforts for a wider impact in the education sector. As such, after 23 years of providing a high quality and affordable educational experience, Al Ghurair University (AGU) closed its doors at the end of the academic year 2021-22, on 31 August 2022.
