AI Research Excellence at Plekhanov University in Dubai
26 December 2025
Scientific research gains its true value when it addresses real world challenges and shapes future solutions. Through the strategic and sustained work of its research centers, Plekhanov University in Dubai has steadily built an academic environment that exemplifies this belief through interdisciplinary research and applied innovation. Within this ecosystem, the Artificial Intelligence Research Center stands as an active driver of innovation advancing complex research in AI and machine learning.
The AI Research center at Plekhanov University in Dubai is led by Director Dr. Ahmed Hamed, a professor at Plekhanov University in Dubai and a specialist in ROS, mechatronics, and AI algorithm development. Under his leadership, the center has established a strong research foundation that blends AI and with the university’s academic focus on economics, business, and management. The center’s approach and research focus supports and aligns closely with the UAE’s National Artificial Intelligence Strategy 2031, which aims to position the country as a global leader in AI adoption and innovation.
Since its recent launch, the center has already made significant progress in its goals. Among its major ongoing projects is the development of an intelligent multilingual Copilot for UAE government services. The project’s initial phase has already been successfully launched, and a dedicated core team — comprising a Data Collector, a Knowledge Engineer, a Technical Consultant, a Project Manager, and a Research Assistant — has been created. This AI solution has the potential to enhance service accessibility, improve procedural efficiency, and support multilingual digital communication within public sector environments. By facilitating accurate, context-aware interactions high-demand languages in the UAE, the system can contribute to more consistent service delivery, reduce response times, and support the digital transformation of government-facing processes.
Beyond research output, the center plays an active role in student development. It offers students the opportunity to work alongside AI experts on their graduation research projects, broadening research scope and strengthening practical research skills. Through its growing portfolio of applied projects and interdisciplinary collaboration, the Artificial Intelligence Research Center reflects the research strength, ambition, and future impact of Plekhanov University in Dubai.
