A launch of 3 more PhD and a celebration of Firsts throughout the last 5 years of UK PhDs in Jordan!
Meet the FIRSTS
They believed early. Achieved big. And paved the way for what’s next.
At the heart of the UKDEGREESMEU journey are the people who turned vision into reality — and today, we honored those whose milestones became markers of progress for an entire program.
• Dr. Rania Zomut – First MEU-sponsored PhD; now leading the Business Department at MEU
• Dr. Sabah Al Harahseh – First Media PhD graduate; from national TV anchor to academic powerhouse
• Dr. Jumana Rsheidat – First Jordanian expat to earn the Hosted PhD and return to MEU as faculty
• Dr. Omar Bawaleez – First to bridge private & public sectors; appointed to faculty at GJU
• Hiba Al Saidi – First to publish as first author during year two of PhD
• Dr. Bader Al Traiji – First PhD student from the Gulf region – from Kuwait.
🎓 Dr. Sara Nasereddin – First to earn two PhDs, bridging business & media; from founding vision to double distinction
Each of them is a story of impact, unique success, and future-making.
💡 This is what UKDEGREESMEU is about.
