Dubai as an education destination!

Exploring new options for my students; countries, courses, universities, drives me. I recently explored Dubai as an education destination.

New York University Abu Dhabi: the expansive campus beats any university including their NY campus(without wall). Allows students to study with a diverse cohort and from professors from diverse backgrounds. The sports complex is indoor and is buzzing with energy on even a summer afternoon. 

S P Jain School of Global Management: Their three destination program BBA allows student to capture global perspectives studying and working in Singpaore, Dubai and Sydney and an opportunity to eventually start working in Sydney. 

American University in Dubai : Programs from Architecture to Liberal Arts and accreditation from USA and UAE give the institution an edge. Their business incubator is a stand-out

Heriot-Watt University, Dubai Campus: Allows students to transfer between their UK and Malaysia campuses. The faculty is great and is very supportive and lot of collaboration possibilities being in vicinity of other colleges( a students words)

Rochester Institute of Technology, Dubai (RIT Dubai) Accredited by Ministry of Education Dubai, it’s a huge campus. Transfer to US campus is possible after the 2nd year. Coops are in built in the programs. Great place to study technology 

BITS Pilani Dubai Campus: Amazing curriculum parallels any US university. While studying engineering, you study humanities programs making the education absolutely robust. Their Practice School 1 and 2 allow students to get industry experience in built in the curriculum (similar to coop programs of the US colleges)

Hult International Business School: Studying 1 year MBA can quickly get one to work right after undergraduate program. 

SYMBIOSIS INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY: The brand new campus is truly international and is located in DIAC which means being close to 10s of other great colleges and hence be able to collaborate. It is accredited by MOE, Dubai!
