Center for Educational innovation

Established in the Fall of 2012, the Center for Educational Innovation (CEI) has been charged to design and implement innovative curricular and faculty development programs across the university. To accomplish these broadly defined goals, the CEI has adopted a 'third generation teaching and learning center' approach that takes into account the needs of the teaching and learning community and integrates them into our strategic planning process. This allows us to remain responsive to your needs while maintaining a focus on the future of teaching and learning at Zayed University.With a focus on Faculty Development, Educational Development, and Innovative Learning Design, the CEI is developing a program to meet the diverse needs of Zayed University faculty.

The CEI focuses on three main areas of support: (1) Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, (2) Pedagogical Innovation, and (3) Educational Technology. 

It is an exciting time for Zayed University as the student and faculty populations continue to grow. The CEI is growing along with the university and helping to shape and support ZU to become a leader in teaching and learning in the region and internationally.
