Programme Overview
This programme, delivered in partnership with Al-Maktoum College of Higher Education, offers a valuable learning experience and opens employment opportunities and career development possibilities in public service, NGO/charitable and private sectors at national and international levels and in areas of ethics, law, sustainable development research, policy, management, consultancy and development.
The specialist units in law and sustainability have been developed by subject specialists at Al-Maktoum College and complement the units on offer at Abertay University.
Units are taught mainly at Al-Maktoum College with some teaching taking place at Abertay University; students will have full access to both campuses.
The programme begins with a two-week foundation module to introduce students to important learning resources within Abertay University and Al-Maktoum College. It also starts the process of encouraging students to work in teams and to see their fellow students as an important learning resource over and above the resources available at the University and the College.

My name is Kavisha Prince Anthony, and I always had a dream of studying abroad. Thankfully, that dream came to life since I applied to the Study Advisor. I was able to receive my visa within four days. I also had some visa refusals in the past; I had about six UK visa refusals in the past, but thankfully, it was not an issue since the Study Advisor was able to make things work this time. I highly recommend Study Advisor for your dreams of going abroad, whether it be the UK or any other European country there is.
