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:
“If twins are believed to be less intelligent as a class than single-born children, it is not surprising that many times they are also seen as ripe for social and academic problems in school. No one knows the extent to which these kind of attitudes affect the behavior of multiples in school, and virtually nothing is known from a research point of view about social behavior of twins over the age of six or seven, because this hasn’t been studied either.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“Oh Death he is a little man,
And he goes from do’ to do’ ...”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!”
—Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)
