Leading higher education and skills development institutions at Dubai Knowledge Park and Dubai International Academic City are set to welcome thousands of learners from around the world as the 2024-25 academic year commences in the UAE with a wide range of future-focused programmes introduced to help today’s talent meet the needs of tomorrow.
Aiming to unite academic learning with evolving job market demands as the potential of technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) permeates across the economy, the new programmes at Dubai Knowledge Park and Dubai International Academic City offer future-ready skills in transformative and emerging sectors such as green energy, financial technology, and sports performance.
“As we stand at the precipice of a new era defined by complexity and rapid transformation, education is the pillar upon which we must build our future,” said Marwan Abdulaziz Janahi, Senior Vice President of Dubai Knowledge Park and Dubai International Academic City, at TECOM Group PJSC.
“We must empower our youth not just with knowledge, but with the tools to become architects of solutions. Our districts are proud to be the home of educational partners empowering our city’s talent pool with the future readiness, critical thinking, and collaborative innovation needed to achieve the goals of Dubai Economic Agenda ‘D33’.”
This commitment is evident in the new programmes being introduced in the 2024-25 academic year at the districts, which together comprise TECOM Group’s Education Cluster. As global decision-makers recognise the role of education in nurturing climate resilience, the University of Wollongong Dubai, based at Dubai Knowledge Park, will offer a new curriculum of short executive courses in sustainable green hydrogen technology to support the global transition to a sustainable future.
