The British University in Dubai in an attempt to further foster and strengthen its outreach to the wider community has embarked on a journey towards the establishment of a student centric magazine publication – which we hope will embed itself into our institutional legacy for generations to come. What better way to do this than by adding a medium to connect the hearts and minds of our students to their extended social ecosystems. In doing so, promising, young and talented individuals are given the opportunity to raise cultural, philosophical, and scientific issues that appeal to a multitude of tastes and interests. They are attempting to connect with you intellectually and creatively, whilst preserving local traditions and respecting UAE culture.
