Dr Vajahat Hussain, CEO, Amity Education Middle East
Safety, connectivity and access to good healthcare are an immediate requirement for students seeking enrolment in universities. UAE universities tick these boxes better than anywhere else in the world. For residents, this is the best and safest option over the next few years, until international travel becomes more stable. These past few months have demonstrated the strength and dedication of our faculty who are frontline heroes in these challenging times. I am certain that this time of self-reflection will bring in a new sense of positivity to all stakeholders. We are in this together.

Professor Dr R N Saha, Director, BITS Pilani, Dubai Campus
Being an Institute of Technology, BITS Pilani is always ahead in the use of technology. It has, across campuses, Cisco tele-presence systems, virtual lab, remote lab, software based design and training, which always gives BITS Pilani an edge and thus attracts maximum number of engineering aspirants.

Dr S V Kota Reddy, Academic President, Mahe Dubai
Convenience, flexibility, and technology are the prime drivers of learning today, which are being channelled through e-learning practices. When we talk about the future of education, e-learning is always at the top of the pyramid. With the outbreak of this pandemic, the future that we have talked about has come sooner than later, and as universities using innovative tools and techniques, we need to focus on these dynamic changes and adapt our delivery of knowledge accordingly.

Professor Glyn Watson, University of Birmingham Dubai Provost
Our Licensure from the Ministry of Education signals to prospective students and their families that we represent the best route to a first-class education from an elite British university that will see them graduate as high-achieving and employable problem solvers.

Professor Mohamed Salem, President, University of Wollongong in Dubai
We are committed to equipping future leaders with the necessary knowledge, skills and capabilities to excel in the workplace. A degree from a leading Australian university, along with accreditation from several professional bodies, will enhance the employability of our students and help their career progression. We remain steadfast in our dedication to boosting the agility and strength of organisations through nurturing professionals that have the ability to raise the profile of the university, their future workplaces as well as of the nation.
