With more than 3,000 students and 150 faculty members, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) is the largest of the nine colleges that make up the University. The College is distinguished by a rich academic tradition, commitment to heritage and innovation, and a dedication to serve our community and the nation.
The humanities and social sciences make an important contribution to a range of contemporary
research questions and problems. Most current social, cultural and economic questions
necessitate cross-disciplinary understanding. Emerging fields such as life sciences
or the cognitive sciences, in particular, benefit from insights and methodological
approaches from the humanities and social sciences. This means that even the most
complex problems can be addressed more effectively. Every aspect of our lives can
be illuminated, placed in context and better understood thanks to insights provided
by the humanities and the social sciences.

I joined Translation major in UAE University because I am passionate about translation
and languages. The university has a distinguished B.A program in Translation and Interpreting
with highly qualified professors. We have a variety of translation and interpreting
courses that focus on different text types and contexts. We also have a Translation
Lab equipped with modern technologies that make our learning experience valuable.
The program offers opportunities for students to practice translation, interpreting
and research skills. The English Literature Program in UAE University is an enjoyable, expertly curated
program that allowed me to learn much more about literature than just text. What I
love about this program is the range of material from different time periods and different
cultures. It is a petri dish of poetry and prose. Being a student in the Translation Studies program at UAEU allowed me to explore diverse
scientific, literary, and cultural domains. Translation is a distinct art; it relies
on creativity and linguistic fluency, and helps build communication bridges to fulfill
the linguistic needs of the community. It is especially important because it contributes
to various aspects of science and knowledge. The curriculum includes many specialized
courses such as legal, scientific, modern media, and business translation as well
as interpreting. Moreover, it offers practical training opportunities. Being in the linguistics program in UAEU has been an incredibly valuable experience
for me. The program offers a high quality and well-rounded education in Linguistics
and provides you with the necessary tools to pursue a future in the field. The faculty
members always do their best to support us in our studies and offer us many wonderful
opportunities to further our knowledge of the field. My professors challenged me to
become a better student, linguist, and thinker. I am proud to be a part of this program
and university. Psychology is one of the most important sciences, and the UAE University pays great
attention to this specialty. This program greatly helps in developing the individual
personally and professionally and helps the person in his way of thinking and his
view of events. . . . In the end, the decision to enter this major was one of the
best decisions I made in my life.Student Testimonials
