    AUD The Mohammed Bin Rashid School for Communication of the American University In Dubai

    The School is oriented to fill the gaps that have historically marred the teaching of media in the Arab world. It strives to graduate students who integrate immediately and instinctively into the working environment of a diversity of Arab media institutions. For that purpose, AUD and MBRSC has set up the programs to teach top-ranking students not only first class professional skills, but also how to infuse their practical knowledge with civic values. It is through the proper use of simple, yet rich diction that students are able to translate their original thoughts, ideas, their trials and tribulations, into stories. That is why the program's Arabic track places a significant emphasis on the student's proficiency in the Arabic language, while the English track on the English language.
