Middlesex University Dubai is the first overseas campus of the renowned Middlesex University based in London, UK. The University’s first learning space in Dubai opened at Dubai Knowledge Park (DKP) in 2005 and has over 6300 + students from more than 120+ nationalities.

The campus offers a vibrant, diverse, and multicultural environment that prides itself on delivering a unique student experience. Reflecting the growth and success of its dynamic international student community, the University expanded by launching a second campus at Dubai International Academic City (DIAC) in September 2021. The University is the largest British KHDA higher education institution for total student enrolments in Dubai, according to KHDA Open Data released in 2024.

The University offers a wide range of foundation, undergraduate and postgraduate programmes across both locations. As well as having all the advantages associated with being a world-class British university, students at both Middlesex University Dubai campuses can benefit from all the opportunities afforded by a rapidly developing modern city in the heart of the Middle East, while experiencing the diverse nationalities and cultures that make up the population of Dubai. 

As a truly global university, Middlesex University is dedicated to supporting the ambitions of a culturally and internationally diverse student body through challenging academic programmes grounded in innovative research, funding, and professional practice. Middlesex University Dubai equips its students to become skilled, professional individuals ready to thrive in today’s world, committed to lifelong learning and actively contributing to their communities.
