The British University in Dubai and the University of Edinburgh sign an agreement to extend their strategic partnership
Professor Neil Robertson, Dean of International Partnerships for the College of Science & Engineering at the University of Edinburgh visited BUiD on 6 November 2024. Professor Robertson’s visit marked a significant step towards strengthening the international academic partnership between The British University in Dubai and The University of Edinburgh. During this visit, impactful opportunities for collaboration were explored, including joint research projects, masterclasses, and student exchange programs, all aimed at providing global learning experiences for students.

Additionally, the two universities have just signed an agreement to extend this strategic partnership for an additional five years. This renewed commitment emphasizes our shared objectives: to collaborate, cooperate, and foster openness; to share information, experiences, and skills, enabling us to learn from one another and develop effective working practices; to work together to identify solutions, avoid duplication of effort, and remain aware of potential risks and costs; and to comply with all applicable laws while upholding best practices.
