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 Dubai s 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.
