Your career journey should not be taken alone. Drive your career forward by tapping into our wealth of career services and the powerful student and alumni community.
Whether an entrepreneurial start-up or a globally recognised brand, the continuing growth and profitability of any business depends on recruiting the right people. The University of Manchester -Dubai’s Career Services help STP partners connect with a regional community of highly motivated and talented postgraduate students.
The team has experience of working with companies of all sizes – from small and medium enterprises to large multinationals – and works closely to understand recruitment needs and add value to the selection process. The University supports partners in engaging with students by securing short-term projects or internships and connecting with part-time MSc or MBA students in an appropriate, relevant context.
Whatever your recruitment needs, The University of Manchester - Dubai believes its regional community of talented, experienced students and alumni is well equipped to meet the challenges that many organisations face. We provide you with an access to a talent pool of over 60,000 business professionals.
The individuals who gain entry to Manchester’s prestigious master‘s programmes are not ordinary students. For example, MBA students typically have six to ten years’ international business experience before joining, and include people from a wide range of industries, languages, and cultures.
Most of the regional students and alumni are MBAs and all are professionals in mid-senior management, functional specialists or executive leadership positions across a range of key regional industries.
These include:
The vast majority of students and alumni fall into the age range of 30 - 50. 85% of the regional community resides in GCC region - mostly in United Ararb Emirates and The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 34% of our students and alumni are senior leaders (of which 37% are C-level). Our community consists of 107 nationalities, creating a rich, diverse alumni network. The University is proud - but not complacent - that around 21% of the regional community of students and alumni are successful women in professional and executive roles.
If you have questions that require individual attention, our career advisors in Dubai are here to help.
