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.
