        "Looking back, I can see IMT Dubai as an extremely important stepping stone in my career. It allowed me to develop not only my technical skills but also interpersonal skills that are extremely important in my field of work. Coming from an engineering background, many facets of the world of business were new to me and I found the MBA programme to be of an exceptional quality and easy to follow. The course is designed and administered so seamlessly that I felt that my faculty and peers have become a support system throughout my stay as well as a network for life. The practical skills backed by academic knowledge have given me the confidence to pursue a career of my choice. This, for me, is the biggest strength of the IMT Dubai." (MBA Batch 2006-2008)

        "I have plenty of memories and have made good friends across UAE. The Professors were extremely outstanding and supportive. I am confident to witness that IMT Dubai provided me a discipline-related knowledge that enhanced my leadership skills, boosted my confidence, in particular, presentation skills and effective communication skills. A senior position in any organization needs a strategic thinking and visionary leadership to drive the organization to the right track, that leadership should be equipped with discipline-related knowledge that was offered by IMT Dubai."

        Ayush Gupta

        Business Development Manager – NDT Corrosion Control Services, Dubai, UAE

        IMT was my first choice because the program focused more on practical learning via simulations and the integration of real-life situations (case studies) for analysis, rather than a typically academic or theoretical approach. Many of the professors at IMT also have corporate experience, and that was important to me as field work is a major facet of my career path." (MBA Batch 2008-2010)

        Renan Rashwan

        Bahrain Contact Center

        "Starting my EMBA with IMT was a valuable experience for me and frankly it was the best decision I ever made. I suffered a lot by crossing distance every weekend for one continuous year; however those miles did not affect my determination NOR my motivation to complete my EMBA. I gained the ability to analyze business situations from global perspective bringing together all managerial skill-sets as well as the capability to seize opportunities around my environment to create new businesses as well as making long-lasting connections with IMT family and learning about cultural differences that impact business decisions.

        I already had first-hand knowledge of how effective that environment can be because we’ve been immersed in IMT. Our professors just did not provide the answers. Instead, they invited us to grapple with information, identify key issues, and reach our own conclusions. As we had actively participated in our own learning, we took the ownership of the same because we deserve it, and will not forget it.

        EMBA, it’s the fuel that rockets my life. It supported me to be a team leader in Bahrain Contact Center and Insha Allah it will continue to support me in my PhD."
