How to get to Zayed Univeristy.....
Starting at the junction between the E11 and the Oud Metha Road (E66): drive along Oud Metha Road away from Dubai towards Al Ain. Take the first exit after Emirates Road (Exit 16) towards Zayed University, Academic City and Silicon Oasis (this is well signposted with a large brown signpost). As you come back over the Al Ain road you will see Zayed University in front of you: it is the large building with what looks like a ship's funnel. After 400 metres take the exit to Zayed University and Dubai Men's College to your right (this is signposted). Immediately there is a small roundabout. Take the second exit. Follow this road, with the university on your right. After 1.5 km turn right at the T junction. Follow the signs to the Main Entrance. Once inside the campus, the car park is the first turning on your right, this is not signposted.
Inside the university
After you park your car walk towards the large entrance way at the centre of the building in front of you. Go under the portico and through the main gate into the central courtyard. Once in the courtyard turn to your right. Walk along the side of the building past the fountain on your left, the university convention centre is in front of you. The auditorium is in this building on the ground floor. The entrance is at the centre of the building.
If you are coming along Emirates Road from Sharjah or Arabian Ranches Roundabout.....
Take Exit 44 (not Exit 50) to get on the Al Ain Road, in the Al Ain & Al Ruwayyah direction. From the Al Ain Road, take the next exit (Exit 16) to Academic City Road. On Academic City Road, take the first right and you will see Zayed University on your right. Immediately there is a small roundabout. Take the second exit. Follow this road with the university on your right. After 1.5 km turn right at the T junction. Follow the signs to the Main Entrance. Once inside the campus, the car park is the first turning on your right - this is not signposted.
