The  United  Arab  Emirates  (UAE)  has  experienced  an accelerated drive to harvest the abundantly available solar energy and to  increase  the share  of  alternative energy  sources in  its  fossil fuel  reliant  energy  generation.  University  research  productivity  on renewable  energy  (RE)  has  been on  the rise  in the  UAE. However, universities  have  not  been  able  to  integrate  RE  into  their  core curricula  but  rather  at  the  senior  level  in  the  form  of  technical electives or  senior  design projects.  This paper  surveys the status  of RE education  in  the  UAE.  It  also  addresses  the  actions  needed  to prepare future graduates for the new challenging RE job market. 

30 solar energy panels of 1988 X 1218 mm were placed on the roofs where health, sports and cultural activities and open spaces are carried out. These solar panels supply energy to the halls of the university.

Solar Power: 95.612,325
