As part of the College of Law’s vision to strengthen the integration between academic foundation and practical application, and in line with its continuous support for the Master’s Program in Arbitration as one of its leading specialized programs, the College organized a workshop titled:
“The Supervisory and Oversight Role of the Judiciary in the Arbitration Process.”
The workshop was delivered by Legal Counsel and Lawyer Mr. Ahmed Hassan Al Zaabi from Hadef & Partners, where he presented an in-depth and professionally advanced legal discussion on the judicial dimensions related to arbitration. He highlighted the role of national courts in supporting arbitration processes and ensuring their effectiveness, in addition to showcasing key practical applications and judicial precedents in this field.
The workshop witnessed remarkable academic engagement from students of the Master’s in Arbitration program and faculty members, serving as a rich interactive platform to discuss practical challenges facing arbitration procedures. This, in turn, enhances students’ skills and connects them directly with real professional practice.
In this context, Dr. Ahmed Al Dabousi, Associate Professor of Commercial and Maritime Law, emphasized the importance of linking academic and practical aspects through such workshops, stating:
“We are keen to ensure that arbitration does not remain purely theoretical, but rather is presented as an integrated practical experience by hosting elite practitioners and experts, contributing to preparing legal professionals capable of efficiently handling arbitration disputes in accordance with the latest international practices.”
At the conclusion of the workshop, the College of Law expressed its sincere gratitude and appreciation to Mr. Ahmed Hassan Al Zaabi for his distinguished academic contribution, affirming its continued commitment to organizing specialized scientific events that enhance the quality of its academic outcomes and strengthen the status of the Master’s in Arbitration program at both the local and regional levels.
