Education must not end at school level

MBA graduates earn 50 per cent more upon course completion, and up to 80 per cent more within five years.

Late Shaikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the UAE's founding father, was once quoted as saying: 'The greatest use that can be made of wealth is to invest it in creating generations of educated and trained people.'

It’s an aspiration that has underpinned the country’s progress to date, but as more people become more educated, those in higher education must do more to retain their edge.

If the employment market, and the rampant pace of technological development that has become a norm tell us anything, it’s that education should not end with the CBSE curriculum.

Although there are many routes to up-skill for a long and successful career, there is one area of education that is as much about pursuing passion as it is about learning: university.

The reasons to continue in full-time education beyond the CBSE curriculum are innumerable and since the UK announced that it will recognise plus two certificates issued by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), the opportunities to do so have multiplied.

Bringing those opportunities to the shores of the UAE, Middlesex University Dubai, a brand campus of the famous Middlesex University London, is offering a diverse range of programmes from BA Honours in film, to accounting and finance, media and IT.

Courses at Middlesex University Dubai meet the demands of the workplace, while satisfying its students’ thirst for knowledge.

Flexibility is key for the undergraduate student. In 2015, students who enroll for the January intake will have the choice to embark on the “accelerate your degree” programme, progressing to year two studies in September 2015.

The school’s courses are formulated and prepare students for their professional life as a skilled individual, by providing challenging academic programmes underpinned by innovative research, scholarship and professional practice.

The courses offered by Middlesex University Dubai are the same as those taught to students at Middlesex University’s London campus, and transfers are available to students who wish to experience the original London campus, which dates back to 1878.

The Dubai campus, which opened in January 2005, has over 2,500 students from over 90 nationalities and, as a global university, is committed to meeting the needs and ambitions of a culturally and internationally diverse range of students.

Middlesex University offers its students the best of both worlds: the advantages of a British university in the heart of the Middle East.

In 2015, to ensure opportunity is open to as many prospective students as possible, Middlesex University Dubai offers a scholarship of up to Dh60,000 if eligible and enrolling before January 25, 2015.
