Why do you need this booklet?

This booklet is designed to give students, parents and career counsellors the information they need about the
universities and colleges in Dubais free zones. It covers general information about each institution, as well as the
specific programmes of study offered. We provide you with reliable and consistent information about 28 universities
and colleges in the purpose-built free zones of Dubai They offer a minimum of one-year diplomas, including
vocational education programmes, but online or distance education programmes have not been included. We hope
the information will help you decide on the right institution and course for you.
The information used throughout this booklet was collected directly from the institutions concerned in November
2012.
Why study in Dubai?

Its strategic location and multi-cultural atmosphere make Dubai a fascinating environment in which to study. The
advantages of an ultra-modern city, with excellent infrastructure and a vibrant youth culture, have helped ensure
that higher education in Dubai has grown dramatically over the last decade. Quality higher education opportunities
in Dubai, which build skills essential to drive economic growth and development, equip young people with choices
that shape their future and that of the country.
How much do courses cost?

Fees vary considerably depending on the institution and the type of qualification sought. In the entry for each
university we show you the fee range for each level of study.
What are the employment opportunities after graduation?

In addition to the employability data for each institution, which is based on data gathered in 2012, we bring you a
number of real-life stories of Dubais graduates.
What is an international campus?

In addition to its other universities, Dubai now has the largest number of international campuses in the world making Dubai one of the top locations for higher education students to study.
These campuses are popular with students because they allow them to study in Dubai and obtain an internationally
recognised degree. As well as attracting international students to the emirate from abroad, these universities are
much in demand from Emiratis and resident expatriates. There are international campuses in Dubai from ten different
countries - US, UK, India, Australia, France, Pakistan, Iran, Canada, Russia and Lebanon.
How is quality assured?

Students who graduate from higher education institutions in the free zones have their degrees certified by Knowledge
and Human Development Authority (KHDA) for employment and other purposes in Dubai. The University and Quality
Assurance International Board (UQAIB) was established by KHDA in 2008 to assure the quality of higher education
in institutions in the free zones. This is an independent board of higher education experts from around the world
who ensure that the academic programme being delivered in the international campus is the same as that provided
at the home campus of the institution. UQAIB has been designed to provide an international approach to quality
assurance that will allow foreign higher education providers to award international degrees through the international
campus model.
Twenty institutions are currently reviewed by UQAIB. They offer international programmes that are accredited by
the quality agency of their home countries and may also have programme accreditation from external professional
bodies. The Commission for Academic Accreditation (CAA), which is part of the Ministry of Higher Education and
Scientific Research, also licenses some institutions in the free zones.

SZABIST
Tanzila Aslam is a graduate of SZABIST Dubai.
She feels that SZABIST, as a small university with smaller class sizes, gave her more opportunity to ask questions,
participate in discussions, and have a professor who actually knew her personally. She found the professors to be
truly committed and dedicated to teaching and believes it was SZABISTs unique learning environment that gave her
the courage to start her own company.
