Gulf News Edufair Dubai is back for its eighth edition from May 9 - 11 at The H Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai, packed with everything you need to plan your next move. High school students and soon-to-be university starters alike will find a host of options – from the right courses to top universities – and get answers from admissions teams. With hundreds of future-ready degrees, expert talks, and study abroad opportunities, here’s why Edufair Dubai is worth your time.

Whether you’re considering local or international education, Edufair Dubai is the place to find the right courses and institutions that align with your career goals. Meet top-ranking UAE universities under one roof and explore a wide range of courses and specialisations directly from the source. Foreign education consultants will also be on-site, representing leading global universities from Canada, the UK, the USA, Europe, and Asia. Get access to information on admissions, course options, and study-abroad pathways – all in one place.

Get face-to-face access to admissions teams, ask questions about courses, semesters, tuition fees, scholarships, internships, and the application process. You can also speak directly with educators who will break down course formats and career paths. It’s a straightforward way to get the details you need before choosing your next step.

Edufair 2025 features over 1,000 degrees from more than 40 exhibitors, covering undergraduate, postgraduate, professional, and short-term certification programmes. It offers a practical way to explore a wide range of courses from the UAE and abroad without the need for time-consuming individual research. Compare programmes, clarify doubts, and gather key details to start your higher education journey. Whether you’re looking at full degrees or short courses, Edufair makes it easier to assess your options.

The seminar series is one of the most popular segments of Edufair, drawing students and parents looking for real-world insights. Experts break down how the job market is changing, which careers are on the rise, and whether it makes more sense to pursue a niche specialisation or a broader degree. You’ll also hear why career stability no longer means sticking to one job and how workplace trends are reshaping long-term plans. For those looking for international education, panels on global talent mobility highlight how changing visa rules are influencing study-abroad decisions.

Edufair visitors can take advantage of exclusive offers from participating universities, including tuition fee discounts, scholarships, and grants. Several institutions will also offer spot admissions, giving students the chance to secure a seat on the spot.

These opportunities reduce financial and administrative stress, helping students and families make faster, more confident decisions as they prepare for university life.
