Outcomes-Based Academic Program Model (ZULOs)

Zayed University has adopted an outcomes-based academic program model. The colloquy and undergraduate programs at Zayed University are consequently outcome-based and designed with reference to the Zayed University Learning Outcomes (ZULOs). These six outcomes were created by faculty members at Zayed University as a means of developing the necessary skills to prepare students for the world.

The Zayed University Learning Outcomes are found in the Zayed University Catalog.

The major programs are housed within one of the six academic colleges; each college's faculty members have created its major Learning Outcomes aligned with the Zayed University Learning Outcomes. Each student will have successfully fulfilled all 6 ZULOs upon graduating from the university.

Within each college, faculty have identified Major Learning Outcomes (MALOs) which are aligned with the Zayed University Learning Outcomes but are discipline specific.

Famous quotes containing the words academic, program and/or model:

    An academic dialect is perfected when its terms are hard to understand and refer only to one another.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Your home is regarded as a model home, your life as a model life. But all this splendor, and you along with it ... it’s just as though it were built upon a shifting quagmire. A moment may come, a word can be spoken, and both you and all this splendor will collapse.
    Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
