Why EAHM

Study at the only university of its kind

Welcome to the first higher education institution in the Middle East offering internationally recognised degree-level courses in hospitality leadership. We’re highly experienced, fully qualified and surrounded by incredible infrastructure, the latest facilities and strong partnerships, but you’d expect that.

What really makes your time here different is the city, the location and the exciting diversity. After all, you’ll live with, learn from and work alongside students from over 50 countries, getting to know them through events and activities throughout the year, including national celebrations from every corner of the globe.

Cosmopolitan, cultured, creative

It’s something reflected within Dubai too: almost 90% of the population here is from outside the United Arab Emirates (UAE), attracted by the opportunities, creativity and development in the city, making it a cultural fusion unlike anywhere else on earth. What’s more, it all takes place in one of the safest cities in the world. And it doesn’t stop when you leave.

Our graduates have worked for over 100 companies across more than 40 countries. They know The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management (EAHM) has the ability to open doors around the world.

So, start your career in Dubai and discover a whole world of hospitality.

The world awaits you

More excitingly for us, Dubai is now a key global player in the hospitality industry, with over 100,000 hotel rooms and brands like Jumeirah, Four Seasons, Marriott, InterContinental and Sofitel prominent in the city.

Best of all, the city’s popular and vibrant hotspots are at the fingertips of EAHM students, easily accessible by bus, metro, tram or taxi. Dubai Marina, The Dubai Mall and the Old Town, as well as the newly expanded Dubai Creek, are all less than 15 minutes from the university – and there are two international airports within 20 minutes.

In fact, EAHM is located in one of the city’s finest areas: across the road from Jumeirah’s iconic Burj Al Arab Hotel, minutes from the beautiful Sunset Beach boardwalk and next to the Souk Madinat Jumeirah. It’s an area bursting with enough malls, hotels, restaurants, shops and activities to last a lifetime! As one of the world’s fastest-growing hospitality and tourism destinations1 , it’s no surprise you’ll find a city packed with unique career prospects and opportunities.
