Pursuing a college degree is one of the most important decisions you can take for your personal and professional development. You can take it to the next level by studying abroad, and make it an even more fantastic experience. We think enrolling in a higher education program in Dubai is one of the best decisions you can make. Here's why.
Today, Dubai is one of the world’s most important financial hubs. Besides being a cosmopolitan city, it features incredible educational offers for international students.
Not that long ago, few people were aware of Dubai. Today a dynamic private sector in the country creates the need to hire highly qualified foreign workers, creating countless opportunities for newly graduates. This makes Dubai an attractive hub to study and work, and a truly cosmopolitan city.
These are the three reasons why you should choose to pursue your higher education program in Dubai.
1. Outstanding Higher education programs
More and more students are choosing to obtain higher education qualifications from Dubai. The education framework mirrors the United Kingdom’s, and students can immerse themselves in a fascinating culture during their stay. Higher education programs in Dubai are aligned with international standards of the highest quality, and they were created to be recognised and valued across the world.
2. Programs designed for the labor market
Prospective students often ask: how will a degree help me get a job? In Dubai, higher education programs are closely linked to labor market demands, so graduates quickly find jobs after their studies.
Universities have worked hard to create programs that adapt to the professional reality. Thinking not only in the Dubai industry, but the world, these educational programs respond to actual market needs, and forecast future trends to stay ahead of the game.
3. It’s all about the money
It may seem like Dubai, as a destination that oozes luxury and is covered in high-tech skyscrapers, is out of reach of most people’s pockets. The truth is, however, that higher education programs in Dubai have very competitive prices, being better value than more conventional destinations.
Daily life for students can be similar to other destinations: the gastronomical and entertainment offer is varied and reasonably priced, and the city is designed with efficiency and comfort in mind for all its inhabitants.
Some of the most sought-after programs
These are some of the best higher education programs in Dubai.
Business and management: you will learn the necessary skills to professionally face the challenges in the business world. You will learn best practices as an employee, and also key skills to create your own company or startup. Get insights into finance, human resources, marketing and customer service and learn how to work in a team. Get the tools to succeed.
Construction management: the growth of cities requires qualified professionals that can handle the challenges of an increasingly complex sector with more and more regulations. This higher education program prepares their students to thrive in the construction sector.
Cloud computing: develop your knowledge and competencies for this career of the future, with a practical component that prepares the student for the job market. You will develop your soft skills and work with real world tools from day 1.
A closer look at Dubai
It is located on the Persian Gulf coast, its official currency is the Dirham and although his official language is Arabic, most people speak English.
While there are seasons, temperatures tend to be high all year round. It’s the ideal destination for the winter months (November-March).
Dubai is very attractive for foreigners: it is an organized, safe and very modern country.
Work tends to be well paid, especially for qualified people. If you choose a higher education program in Dubai, it’s likely that once you complete it, you will find attractive job offers.
Dubai is multicultural. In the city all cultures live together, with over 75% of its population being foreign.
