Message from the dean
Dear Students,
Dear AUMers,
On behalf of everyone at AUM, myself, and the team at the Deanship of Student Affairs (DSA), I would like to welcome you all to the American University of Madaba, a place where you will receive world-class education, pursue your educational goals, and embark on a transformative learning experience. Our responsibility at the DSA is to create a healthy, safe and inclusive campus that enables you to maximize your personal potential, enjoy your learning journey and ensure that your stay at AUM is a life-changing event. While academics are at the core of any education, we at the DSA believe that learning continues and is enriched beyond the boundaries of the conventional classroom, and we want your out-of-class experiences to be on par with the inspiring learning you receive in class.
To facilitate this, the DSA will strive to meet all of your needs as an AUMer. Whether you are a Jordanian national, or an international student, we will work hard to facilitate your integration into AUM via orientation, housing, and female student accommodation. We will support your physical and mental health via dedicated services, including sports events and activities, student advice and counseling and many others. Our commitment to your success will also address your future careers, and we will provide you with the best career guidance and counselling services. We want you to learn, thrive and succeed.
I urge you as the Dean of DSA to get involved, take care of your health, to show empathy, tolerance and respect, to give back to your community (volunteer), to share your time and talents with others on campus, and to cherish the experience of being an AUMer. We hope that you always keep in touch, and provide us with your innovate ideas and feedback.
We at the DSA are dedicated to helping you do all of this and more. We are here for you if you encounter any challenges during your journey. We want you to try, enjoy and learn from the different experiences the AUM campus has to offer. We are certain that these experiences, will help you realize your full potential as responsible world citizens, and Jordan’s next generation of future leaders.
I welcome you to AUM again, and wish you an exceptional AUM Experience.
GO AUMers!
