A great learning experience in a multicultural environment.
Tips: Students should know that the university offers a diverse and multicultural environment with students from different countries. My transition was smooth since Dubai is a multicultural city; adapting was not very difficult. Yes, I did get a scholarship on the basis of previous grades. I am highly satisfied with the course, city, and overall UAE.
Likes (Safety): I rated 5 stars because of the safety for both the campus and the city. Apart from campus security, there are CCTV cameras, controlled access to university facilities, emergency support services, well-maintained infrastructure, etc. My experience in Dubai is very positive. The city is cleaned, well-maintained, has infrastructure, etc.
Dislikes (Internships): I rated it 4 stars because there is a good amount of guidance available for internships; the university supports them through career services, job portals, and workshops. Most of the internship opportunities are from my relevant field of study, which helps in gaining practical knowledge.

Good university and great exposure in Dubai.
Tips: MDX Dubai is super easy to fit into. The crowd is insanely diverse, so you won’t face a major culture shock, and they give decent scholarship discounts if your high school grades are good. But real talk—don’t just sit in class expecting a job to fall into your lap. The campus is right in Dubai Knowledge Park surrounded by huge corporate hubs but the competition is crazy. You have to hunt for internships, hit up uni events and join clubs to build a network that actually goes anywhere. Honestly though I’m glad I came here. The vibe is awesome, and the exposure you get in Dubai is unmatched. But yeah—you gotta hustle.

Middlesex University Dubai, Review (Daytime MBA Student)
Tips: For master degrees, don't involve too much into extracurricular activities, rather work on your skill set be it technical or soft skills, and side by side focus on academics so that you're job ready when course ends and potential land a good internship!
Likes (Student Life): Multiple options to roam around in the university to spend your free time taking from cafeterias and hill zones, and small space to study along with big labs to work on your projects as well, open till 6 pm, so that one can work peaceful and enjoy the board games as well along with a gaming room!
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work is available but given that it's a day time MBA it's hard to go for part time job locations but you can get a job in the university by talking with the admin people and being socially active with just admin people rather than involving in activities.

Highly Recommended: Great Campus in a secure, Diverse country.
Tips: I actually managed to score a 25% scholarship, which honestly took a huge weight off my shoulders. I'm really happy with the professors here and all the campus facilities they've got. Plus, even with everything going on in the world right now, the UAE still feels like one of the safest places you could possibly be. I’d definitely recommend giving it a shot and applying here.

Great campus environment and opportunities, vibrant campus life and great academics.
Tips: Honestly campus life here is pretty well-rounded so you can easily juggle your classes while still having a life outside of studying. The professors are great and really supportive, but they aren't going to hand you everything on a silver platter—you genuinely have to go out of your way to find the cool projects and opportunities. On top of that, just figuring out how the campus vibe works and actually talking to people makes a world of difference when you're trying to build a network.
Likes (Part time work): As it provides strong support for placements and career opportunities. There are regular placement drives, internship opportunities, and skill development programs that help students become job ready. The presence of reputed companies visiting the campus is really appreciated.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Getting your permanent residency here is definitely doable since the pathways are there, but the whole process is a massive waiting game and insanely competitive. Even though the routes are pretty straightforward on paper—like going the skilled worker route or securing a long-term job—you still have to deal with a ton of moving parts, constantly changing visa rules, and strict job requirements.

Good academics, a supportive environment, and strong career opportunities.
Tips: Students should be ready for an academically focused environment with assignments and self study. The transition was smooth for me, but there can be a small cultural shift. Scholarships are available but you need to apply early for them. Overall I am satisfied with my university.

MDX Dubai generally issues admissions after the application within 15 to 20 working days for Indian students. The only condition is that all the admission documentation is met by students.

The MDX admissions are done on a rolling basis and the applicants are required to apply early.

The September intake at the MDX Dubai is the main intake for Indian students for most of its courses. The January intake (often known as January intake) offers some good PG courses in areas like Business, Engineering and Data Science.

Very limited UG courses are available in January.
