Very good faculties, supportive staffs and a good library.

Tips: Make sure you have a clear idea of the course you're going to do, book your accommodation beforehand and view your accommodation in person before you book it. There are placement years available look into those courses too and they do have a team to help you with your interview and finding part-time jobs. The faculty are helpful so you can reach out to them without any hesitation. Do participate in activities and clubs as it will help you to connect with people. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the course and country.

The university is quite good as well as the faculty.

Tips: The students should be ready for culture shock. There is a lot of cultural shift but one can do that at one's own pace. Scholarships are available up to 32500 and I am satisfied with my university. One last thing, everything boils down to you and how you do it so come prepared.

Education & Experience at DMU is worth it.

Tips: Clarity on course and career is absolutely important . DMU has vide options of subjects to offer from different fields. Students must research and understand post-study work opportunities before making decisions. DMU in general offers a very welcoming and inclusive environment to its students, making the entire transition process easier. Student communities and faculty at campus are extremely helpful and supportive. One can find a lot of Indians in general on campus and in the city. The overall experience at DMU was satisfactory and worthwhile.

Likes (Public transportation): Campus is situated at the heart of the city, well connected with various facilities in the city. Healthcare facilities can be found on campus, public transportation is easily accessible and affordable. Entertainment and shopping centres are within walking distance. Bus and train stations are easily accessible through public transportation.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): UK in general has various graduate job opportunities. Immigration and settlement opportunities depend on prevalent policies. Currently, there is 2 2-year Post-study work visa, which is favourable for students. Post masters work opportunities are relatively easier than post-bachelor.

From School to University- an experience.

Tips: Coming to DMU Dubai opened my perspective much more than school. Shifting to a UK curriculum from CBSE gave me more freedom to use my time better. Moreover, the academics were now more practically based than CBSE's typical theory. Communication with international students gives you exposure to the real world and helped me learn how to deal with people on a daily basis. I availed 30% academic scholarship for getting 90+ in boards. Moreover, they offer several school, early bird and sibling discounts as well. I'm satisfied and working to make my university as lively as possible for myself and my university fellows. As part of the student council, I work to conduct more interactive events for all students. Celebrate festivals for all cultures, hold clubs to invite other universities, we do it all. I'm satisfied with what my course is offering and the facilities given by the professors and management. From short classes to internships to workshops and seminars my course aids me to learn the best to be prepared for the outside world.

Likes (Safety): Dubai is one of the safest cities in the world. The people are very comfortable in using the campus as well as roaming the city even in late night hours. Even if you may need small help from the people in the city in case of emergency, it is very safe, for example, if you don't have a phone, strangers would be polite to offer you their phones to make calls.

Dislikes (Internships): Our university offers summer internships to support the students as well as throughout the year. However, sometimes the internships would be less compared to the people and given to the people who need the most or those who have the most experience. The internships may also be unpaid sometimes or not available if your course is a complex one.

The university is amazing because they will give you a lot of exposure about everything.

Tips: Students should know that then they should opt for genuine websites for accommodation and should not go for something from Facebook. As there are a lot of scams going around generally. There are a lot of scams going on here that they should be aware of and the police system is not doing a lot about this issue.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is just awesome and extremely supportive. They are very experienced and can give you a lot of insight. They are like mentors and not nagging teachers who're going to be at your throat. Some might be like that but so far I have not encountered someone like that in the faculty.

Dislikes (Part time work): All the students are struggling to find any part time jobs. The economy is struggling. I found a job as a student ambassador but that only gives me two hours a week and if you plan on depending on a part time job then I would suggest please don't come here.

Highlights

The course focuses upon developing a spatial understanding of the underlying principles and current theories needed to understand and respond to (design) the challenges that 21st century urbanisation presents across the globe.
It supports student's in developing a spatial design skill-set able to respond to the complex array of social, economic and environmental factors affecting cities, as well as to cultural issues, such as spatial traditions and histories of city form and design.
The programme concludes with a 'thesis' module. Two pathways are available. Whilst both focus upon 'design', one offers opportunity to conclude your studies in an extensive written thesis, whilst the other offers opportunity to conclude your studies in a thesis comprising of drawn/ modelled/ illustrated outputs in combination with a shorter written text.
All students also have the option of a year of industry placement prior to commencing their thesis studies.
At the end of the programme students will have developed key skills in articulating, communicating and illustrating complex city analysis and proposal, underpinned by knowledge of theories relevant to current practice and global urban issues.
