Commenting on this innovative initiative, Dr. Karim Seghir, Chancellor of Ajman University, stated:

academic excellence. It calls for an environment where purpose, reflection, and real-world engagement
are embedded into the educational experience. Through this model, we aim to graduate individuals who
are not only capable professionals, but also thoughtful leaders with a deep sense of responsibility to
society.”

The introduction of Masar marks a major milestone in Ajman University’s broader strategy to embed
career development into the heart of the educational experience. This commitment has earned the
university global recognition. According to the QS World University Rankings 2026, Ajman University is
ranked #3 in the UAE for employer reputation, a reflection of the institution’s sustained focus on
producing career-ready graduates.

Masar is aligned with We the UAE 2031 and Ajman Vision 2030, both of which emphasize the
development of national talent, the advancement of a knowledge-based economy, and the
empowerment of youth to lead transformative change across sectors. By strengthening the capabilities
of graduates to adapt, innovate, and lead, Masar contributes to the nation’s priorities for inclusive and

sustainable development.

Throughout the student lifecycle, Masar delivers tailored guidance from early exploration of interests
and pathways, to mid-program industry placements, and career coaching as graduation nears. The
model continues beyond graduation, offering alumni access to mentoring, professional growth
opportunities, and lifelong engagement.

A defining characteristic of Masar is its emphasis on meaningful connection. By fostering collaboration
between students, faculty, alumni, and industry leaders, the framework offers real-world immersion
through career fairs, live projects, consulting challenges, and expert panels. These experiences cultivate
not only technical competencies but the relationship capital essential for leadership and long-term

success.

The launch of Masar Career Excellence reinforces Ajman University’s position as a forward-thinking
institution that places student success at the core of its mission. It reflects a strategic approach to higher
education—one that empowers graduates to shape their futures with purpose and contribute
meaningfully to a resilient, inclusive, and knowledge-driven society.
