University is great; it provides cross-cultural global experiences. Along with that, the academics is so much more interesting: the course structure, pattern, professors, etc. The career team and student service team are by far my best experience. read more

My time at Heriot-Watt University Dubai has been a transformative journey of growth and learning. More than just earning a degree, I have gained confidence, developed new perspectives, and prepared myself for future challenges. The Dubai campus offers excellent infrastructure, modern facilities, and a diverse environment that encourages students to learn, collaborate, and grow. Being surrounded by people from different backgrounds has helped me become more open-minded and adaptable. The university’s career services and industry-focused approach have supported my professional development and helped me build skills beyond academics. Heriot-Watt has encouraged me to think critically, innovate, and develop a mindset ready for the real world. It is more than a university, it is a place that shapes ambitions, inspires growth, and helps students build their future. read more

A great place to study. I have really gained a lot of confidence being here. The campus feels like one big community, always friendly and familiar faces around. Also a great range of sports, the only issue is how expensive they are. My classes are very practical in nature, helping me to build useful life, social and employability skills. read more
