A “desert rose” is the name given to rose-like formations of crystal clusters found in Qatar’s arid desert regions. The beautiful, complex design of a desert rose produces ‘petals’ which fan open in radiating flattened crystal clusters. This intricately formed natural phenomenon has become a cultural icon in Qatar, a country where art and design are cherished. Like a desert rose, each student at the University of Calgary in Qatar is unique. Our students are the central focus of all we do and are the core of a uniquely interwoven set of goals and priorities which will guide our growth over the next five years.
