• The Health Sciences are my passion and I was very fortunate to have received quality premedical education, with remarkable laboratory opportunities, from such a prestigious university. Even though the department is still growing, it is notable that students are still given the chance to study the Sciences at AUS like their peers abroad. –Nwamaka Bob-Ume
• “I have always wanted to study and work in the field of biology, and was very glad when the biology major was launched at AUS. The high standard of fundamental knowledge and hand-on experience that the biology major offers at AUS has paved the way in front of me to pursue and accomplish my future goals.” –Reem Hmaidan, Class of 2011
• "When I was looking at potential schools for my Doctor of Pharmacy degree, I looked for the kinds of students that graduated from the school rather than the kind that the school took in. When I measure success in an institution or program, I look at the impact the graduates of that school have on the society. I’m very proud to say that the American University of Sharjah has one of the most impactful class of graduates in the region each year. Furthermore, the Department of Biology, Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences at AUS tailors education to meet the needs of all students regardless of their academic background and creates competitive candidates for graduate and postgraduate schools as well as industry."- Solmaz Karimi
• "AUS challenged me and definitely helped prepare me for grad school in the United States. The events and field trips conducted by the professors were memorable and turned our cohort into close friends."- Rabab Al Araji
