College of Dentistry

Dean's Message

Prof. Dr. Ali Razooki

I am honored to serve as the college’s first permanent dean since 2020 and lead our efforts to improve oral health throughout UAE and globally through excellence in education, patient care, community service, and scientific research.
Our college provides a full array of top-rate educational opportunities – from the date of joining the dentistry program until graduation. The strategic location of the CUA campus makes our college highly accessible from all the emirates of the UAE.
Collectively, our students and patients benefit from the skills and exceptional clinical experience of our highly devoted faculty as well as a rich collaborative environment afforded by being one of the main dental colleges in the emirate of Ajman. Our college’s faculty are not only educators and clinicians but also leaders in developing the knowledge that guides teaching and clinical dental and oral health care.
As we focus on developing exceptional dentists and researchers, we are ever mindful that academic excellence must be matched by compassion, integrity, and professionalism and that our future depends on producing not only future clinicians but also leaders, academicians, and researchers.
By having a robust set of early competency framework assessment systems, students can access state-of-the-art labs and clinics and begin gaining the required practical and clinical skills and experiences. Our students will treat patients within their 4th and 5th years of the BDS curriculum to gain the necessary skills and experiences that enable them to be competent health providers.
As a commitment to the CUA graduates, the College of Dentistry at CUA has recently offered an internship training program to support them with the required advanced clinical experiences that prepare them to meet the UAE health authorities’ licensing requirements.
We appreciate your interest in joining the College of Dentistry at CUA and invite you to visit or contact us for additional information.
