Among these is the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), which plays a critical role in regulating the higher education landscape in Dubai. Keeping stringent legislations in place, KHDA is the key figure for any organisation looking to establish and operate an institution in the city.
Regardless of the conglomerate, each international university is given the choice to function under the University Quality Assurance International Board (UQAIB) quality assurance scheme or be licensed and accredited by the Commission for Academic Accreditation (CAA), both of which involves an intensive set of standards that they must surpass in order to qualify.
Dubai has set specific processes in order to ensure institutions provide quality education to students. There are two ways in which quality in higher education is assured. Institutions in the Free Zones are given academic authorisation by KHDA through its Quality Assurance scheme; or they can apply to the federal Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research for accreditation through the Commission for Academic Accreditation (CAA).
KHDA adds convenience for students looking for quality education outlets by listing approved programmes and intuitions on its website, which is available to the general public, and further prevents advertisements and recruitment of any sort prior to approvals.
KHDA is also the key body that certifies academic qualifications, ensuring that graduated students have attested degrees fit for employment and other purposes across the emirate.
Dubai International Academic City (DIAC) and Knowledge Village (KV) are purpose-built zones in Dubai that provide facilities and infrastructure for higher education. They have attracted institutions from all around the world to provide high-quality international degrees. Other purpose-built areas that include higher education institutions are Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), Dubai Healthcare City, and Dubai Silicon Oasis.
To date, there are 432 academic programmes available in Dubai, with the 227 of these being Bachelor's degrees and a further 141 programmes are at Master's level. The programmes cover a wide range of fields of study. Around 39 per cent falls under the field of business, while the rest offer courses in information technology, engineering, law, media and design, education, social studies, Islamic studies, health and medicine, and natural and physical sciences.
