Led by Abu Dhabi’s G42, the parent company of Injazat, the partnership will see Zayed Universitymatch students from their College of Interdisciplinary Studies, with mentors and practitioners at Injazat where they will be coached and will sandbox ideas that solve real world industry issues and challenges. Under Injazat’s mentorship, students will research and evaluate the potential of AI in diagnosing learning difficulties, analyze non-traditional schools from around the world to localize and brainstorm adaptation models, conduct behavioral change studies in parents to boost acceptance towards online learning and explore the use and benefits of AR/VR technology in building interpersonal skills, confidence, and public speaking skills among students.
