DUBAI UNIVERSITY COLLEGE joins HPN Community
Dear members and friends of HPN:
we are delighted to present you a new partner within our worldwide network!
As a corporate academic college in partnership with Dubai Chamber of Commerce & Industry, the Dubai University College strive to be pre-eminent in providing the highest quality applied learning based on international academic standards, in addition to professional development services to the workforce in both the private and public sectors.
Since its creation in early 1997, under the jurisdiction of the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Dubai University College has undergone a period of rapid and substantial development.
In September 1997, with just 15 staff members, Dubai University College started with 160 students. A year later, Dubai University College saw extraordinary growth potential beginning to emerge with 350 students enrolled, and six months later, it occupied significant space in two buildings (DCCI & Al Masaood Campuses).
At the same time, essential development in staffing and support infrastructure was taking place, with staffing reaching about one hundred employees. Their continuous contributions have helped us reach todays leading position in research and consultancy, Bachelors programs as well as professional qualifications and corporate training.
In January 2000, a decree issued by the Dubai Rulers Court granted Dubai University College its legal status. Soon thereafter, the UAE Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, through a second decree, granted Dubai University College a license to develop and award its own degree programs. Thus, September 2000 saw the commencement of the DUCs new portfolio of academic programs.
This portfolio included a series of Bachelors degrees in Business Administration (BBA) covering Marketing, Management, Banking and Finance, Accounting and Tourism & Hospitality Management, in addition to two Bachelors of Science (B.Sc.) programs in Internet Computing and in Computing and Information Technology.
