Deanship of Student Affairs

Ahlia University

Welcome to the Ahlia University, where academic success begins!

The Deanship of Student Affairs has a direct relationship with the students. The utmost role of this relationship is taking care of the students and supervising their different activities.  This is done by providing various services to students which can help them to overcome any academic difficulties, resolve any issues or conflicts and encourage them to participate in curricular and extra circular activities. It shoulders the responsibility of assisting in preparing Ahlia University students, socially, culturally as well as enforcing good discipline.

The vision of the Deanship of Student Affairs is to become a leading centre of academic excellence by providing the highest quality services to students to develop their personal, social, and intellectual ability.

The Deanship of Student Affairs is divided into Four Directorates:

  • Directorate of Admission and Registration: Manages admission, provides advice and support to prospective students, handles student records, course timetabling, exam scheduling and process student graduation after the completion of the academic programme.
  • Directorate of Student Counselling: Provides student guidance, counselling and advising services to students. The directorate also follows up on special needs students. The Directorate also follows up with the concerned departments with regards to students on probation, student attendance and progression.
  • Directorate of Professional Relations: Provides support for student internship placements, career counselling, and helps to establish relations between the academic staff and industry to provide consultancy, training and research. Alumni follow up is also done via the directorate through its Alumni Club.
  • Directorate of Student Activities and Services: Provides extra circular activities related to sport, culture, and other social events. The directorate also provides support for the student elections to Student Council as well as providing support for the Student Council.

The Deanship of Student Affairs maintains an open-door policy, where students are welcomed at any time if they have questions, concerns, or would like to set up a meeting with a staff member. A dedicated officer at the Deanship of Student Affairs is responsible to follow up with all enquires and complaints raised by the students either through ADREG or in person. The Deanship directs all enquiries/complaints to the appropriate channels and follows up to ensure the matter is resolved satisfactorily. An enquiry and complaint system on ADREG is available for students to submit any concerns or questions.

Non Retaliation Policy

Ahlia strictly prohibits any form of retaliation against any employee or student who in good faith makes a complaint, raises a concern, provides information or otherwise assists in an investigation or proceeding regarding any conduct that her or she reasonably believes to be in violation of Ahlia’s Code of Conduct or policies, or applicable laws, rules or regulations.

No employee or student should be discharged, demoted, suspended, threatened, harassed, intimidated, coerced, or retaliated against in any other manner as a result of him or her making a good faith complaint or assisting in the handling or investigation of a good faith complaint. Ahlia prohibits employees or students from being retaliated against even if their complaints are proven unfounded by an investigation, unless the employee or student knowingly made a false allegation, provided false or misleading information in the course of an investigation, or otherwise acted in bad faith. Employees and students have an obligation to participate in good faith in any internal investigation of retaliation.

Ahlia takes all complaints of retaliation very seriously. All such complaints will be reviewed promptly and, where appropriate, investigated.

If you believe you have been retaliated against or that any other violation of this policy has occurred, or if you have questions concerning this policy, you must immediately notify Human Resources, or your immediate supervisor/advisor. You may also contact the Unit of Legal Affairs and Compliance.

Any employee or student who violates this policy is subject to disciplinary actions.
