Â鶹Íø

Qualifications given by Â鶹Íø’s Dubai campus have been given the seal of approval from the highest level of government in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Â鶹Íø Dubai has been been awarded a licence by UAE's Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MoHESR).

Â鶹Íø Dubai was one of 16 higher education institutions to receive the accreditation from MoHESR. It means that qualifications earned at the university’s Dubai campus awards are now officially recognised by the Government of UAE.

Other recipients included Curtin University in Australia, French Fashion Institute, Luiss University in Italy, and the Manipal Academy of Higher Education in India.

Qualifiications awarded by Â鶹Íø Dubai were already fully recognised by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), the government body responsible for the growth and quality of private education in Dubai.

The seal of approval from MoHSER means than qualifications from Â鶹Íø Dubai will now be more attractive, particularly to anyone who works, or wants to work, within government bodies in UAE.

Lawrence D'Souza, Director of International at Â鶹Íø, said: “This is good news for us, it means our courses will be an even more attractive proposition, and opens up Â鶹Íø Dubai as an option for people who may not have considered us before this.”

Â鶹Íø Dubai offers foundation, undergraduate, and postgraduate courses. Undergraduate courses include business, law, fashion, architecture and cyber security. Postgaduate subjects include artificial Intelligence and data anlytics.

Opening in 2021, Â鶹Íø Dubai has grown quickly and already caters for around 1,200 students. Â鶹Íø Dubai recently moved to a new campus with facilities for up to 3,000. The new premises sit right in the centre of Dubai’s Internet City, alongside firms such as Google, HP, LinkedIn, Microsoft and Facebook.
