The Student Persistence & Accessibility Coordinator will help with the implementation of primarily one-to-one and also group coaching resources designed to foster the personal, social, and intellectual development of students and to cultivate a sense of belonging and connection to NYUAD and the division of Student Affairs. The role will focus on the needs of NYUAD’s uniquely international student body but will maintain a focus on the specific needs of students who are UAE nationals and residents.

New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) is a central part of NYU’s global network, marked by a uniquely international student population (100+ nationalities); a rigorous, liberal arts and science academic program; and a location at the crossroads of the Arab world. We are a highly diverse community that shapes and examines issues of common humanity through multicultural perspectives; recognizes that the breadth of an education here extends far beyond the classroom and the campus; sees students themselves as educators; and recognizes that true engagement with the breadth of our diversity requires curiosity, humility, and engagement with contrasting views and values.

The mission of NYUAD’s Division of Student Affairs is to collaborate with students to find individual and collective meaning in their personal, intellectual, professional, and social lives. We cultivate belonging within a uniquely intercultural community; foster lifelong development for a complex world; and catalyze meaningful engagement with the United Arab Emirates.
