I have found the MBA programme to be well-structured, with lecturers of a high standard. The weekend classes fit around my working hours and I find this a better way of learning than a 100% online programme.

Highly ranked. You can study at any of the 5 or 6 international campuses. The university's specialisms are within strategy and entrepreneurship. I like that they run physical classes in Dubai, flying out lecturers from the UK.

By far and away the best option for an MBA in the UAE. One of the originals in terms of pioneering the industry and they fly their professors in from Scotland on a rolling basis. Great value compared to the other international programs.
