| Was wondering if anybody living in the UAE had information about mid-career professional graduate programs. If you were keen to go, would you head abroad or consider options in the UAE? Thanks. |

| By the way, I'm asking because I'm looking to advance my career by taking a year off to enroll in a master's program for mid-career professionals. I am most interested in international affairs and diplomacy and I'm not sure what the options are in Dubai? I've been working for the last seven years -- four in the financial sector and three for an international organization based in Dubai. I have a life here and would like to stay, but am not sure that this is the best thing for me academically. Thanks for any advice! |

| Hi. I am in a similiar situation. I am an Emirati citizen who attended university in Australia. I have been working for a few years in Dubai now and would like to go back to school for similiar IR program. Not interested in the executive ed programs though. Have heard about a lot of foreign universities opening up here lately, but not sure about caliber, or whether a lot of Emirati students are expected to enroll? Would be interested to know what is out there. Ideas? |

| Have you heard about Georgetown opening in Qatar? They may have some courses for you, not sure. Also the Fletcher School which has a good rep from what I hear is opening up next door in Abu Dhabi. Anyone know anything more about either of these? Sorry Cooper. |
