Higher Education DubaiEducation is one the most important factor that expatriates consider before shifting their families to Dubai. The same section in in-dubai.com deals with everything that is related to education ranging from schools and universities in Dubai to the steps taken by education council and ministry of education.

The constant growth of population within the Emirates has triggered off a substantial amount of investment being made in the field of education. An extensive education system from kindergarten to university is being offered to all residing male and female students within the UAE with the local students having the expenses of their education shouldered by the government.
