Our Dubai MBA Online Meeting: Key Takeaways!
10 July 2026
Dr. Svetlana Chigaeva-Hedad, Deputy Director of Academic Affairs, and Dr. Ali Abu Abbas recently hosted a call with prospective students of our MBA program. Without any fluff, they dove straight into the essentials: how the MBA in Leadership and Management is structured and how it drives career growth.
If you couldn't make it to the live session, don't worry! We have summarized the most important points in four quick highlights:
- Double Degree Advantage: Our university is fully accredited in the UAE. This means that upon graduation, you will receive two official degrees—one from the UAE and one from Russia—both recognized globally. Furthermore, we are currently working on adding a European Diploma Supplement to the mix.
- 100% Practical, Zero "Dry Theory": Professor Ali emphasized that we won't just recite textbooks or theory you can Google in five minutes. The entire curriculum is built around real-world business case studies, developing strategic thinking, risk management, finance, and digitalization. The program is taught entirely in English, with flexible options to attend classes on campus or study online.
- Duration & Tuition Fees: Everything is flexible here. Only need the UAE degree? You can complete it in 1 year. Want both degrees (UAE + RF)? The program will take 1.5 to 2 years. The tuition fee is around 80,000 AED per year, but we offer merit-based scholarships of up to 50% based on your past academic or professional achievements. Additionally, an early-bird discount of 10% is available for those who don't procrastinate.
- We Handle the Logistics: We know how challenging moving to a new country can be. That is why the university provides full support with student visas, health insurance, and premium accommodation in modern student residences (The Myriad or KSK Homes). Essentially, all you need to do is arrive and focus on your studies.
