The Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) has introduced a groundbreaking PhD program focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence and criminal law. This program aims to explore how AI technologies can be leveraged in legal systems, particularly in areas like evidence analysis, predictive policing, and judicial decision-making.

The curriculum integrates technical AI training with legal theory, allowing students to study the ethical and regulatory challenges posed by AI in criminal justice. Research areas include mitigating biases in AI-driven legal tools, ensuring accountability in automated decision-making, and the impact of AI on fundamental rights.

This initiative reflects the UAE’s commitment to leading in AI education and fostering innovation in legal and technological fields. MBZUAI’s program is expected to attract scholars from diverse disciplines, contributing to a better understanding of how AI can support fairer and more efficient legal systems globally.
