Hi guys,

I'm in my way to start MBA in Dubai, am choosing from...

Hi,

It is difficult to say which one is better, since both schools are not accredited by any meaningful accreditation body. in such cases it is best to try finding out about their career office and placement services. also try to contact some of the alumni of the schools, and see what they have to say about it.

Hi A_Dewidar,
If you're open to other options for MBA programs in Dubai, you could also consider Hult. I work with them. It's ranked by both the Economist and the Financial Times.

There's a one-year full time MBA program:
www.hult.edu/mba-program/campuses/dubai
And a two-year part-time MBA program:
www.hult.edu/mba-program/our-program/part-time-mba…

If you're already in Dubai, you can get a good idea about Hult by attending the Pocket MBA program in a few days:
www.dkvevents.ae/rep.php?event_id=117&general_id=9…. There will be Hult professors, current students and plenty of campus representatives so you'll get a good idea about the programs and can ask all the questions you want.

Otherwise, don't hesitate to get in touch with us via the website (online chat, phone number and e-mail all listed).

Best of luck in choosing an MBA program!

Thanks for the info.. It was really helpful
btw i went to Strathclyde but they told me the workx has to be 3 yrs minimum, which i dont have (2yrs )

-Timings n schedule in Bradford is of concern to me. Since my working days are sun-thu and there is no way i can make it thru..They told me the program is tailored for employees of Emirates n other sponsors coz they get a day off n the salary is still counting.

Is there any other college around with good repo and Campus placements post MBA.

I am planning to consider HULT as well(Full-Time) they have introduced this prg in Dubai.

How about UOWD (placements and quality of edu)?
If you have any info pls pass it on..

Thx!

Hult is a good choice as well, but n my opinion they r soo expensive comparing to the others and considering they have only one accreditation "AMBA".
UOWD also is fine but they r not accredited "AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB", they only accredited by the UAE and Australian higher education. Also they r not included in any ranking "economist or FT".
There is more options u can check them out in Dubai Like...
CASS, u can find them in DIFC, Good reputation and three accreditation. Fees about 30,000 UK (as far as I remember).
Manchester Business School "MBS", they have office in Knowledge Village, Good reputation and three accreditation as well. Fees about 20,000 UK (also as far as I remember).
AUD "American University in Dubai" and AUS "American University in Sharjah", good reputation, non accredited by any of main bodies "AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB", but still good reputation specially n GCC and Arab countries, Gr8 education quality, Accredited in UAE and USA. Fees about 18,000 UK.

U can contact me for any further details.
Good Luck.

Actually In my opinion there is no big different between both of them,
Only EMBA is developed to those whom have a very large work experience and want to empower their experience with studying, and it is more practical studying. In the other hand MBA don’t require that much of experience and it’s balanced between practical and academic study. That’s my personal assessment.

Meera,
There are many great local and international universities now in Dubai offering part time and flexible learning MBA.
It depends in your budget, your plans and what exactly do want?!
I’ll be happy to help you in the long process of choosing the most fitting school for you.

I am looking at doing a MBA in health care or hospital management from an accredited university which would help me to get a good position anywhere in the globe.. any suggestions about a good university offering such a programme in UAE? Is it a must for an university offering MBA to be having all three accreditations: AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB?

sss,

There are no schools in UAE that have triple accreditation. If that's not a deal breaker, you can browse some programs there by searching here:
