About Emirates Aviation University
Emirates Aviation University (EAU) traces its roots to 1991 as a training arm of The Emirates Group, later merging with Emirates Training College in September 2001 to form Emirates Aviation College. In December 2010, the UAE Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research granted it official university status, and it was renamed Emirates Aviation University in 2014.
As the education arm of The Emirates Group, EAU is the Middle East's leading institution for aeronautical engineering, aviation management, logistics and supply chain management, aviation safety, and aviation security, offering undergraduate and postgraduate programmes alongside professional training courses. The university's curriculum is directly shaped by its close relationship with Emirates Airline, ensuring training reflects the latest developments in the aviation industry, supported by aerodynamics and electronics laboratories and EASA-accredited maintenance training facilities.
EAU has held a long-standing partnership with Coventry University in the UK spanning more than a decade, giving students access to a UK degree while studying in Dubai, and its MBA in Aviation Management has received a 5-star QS rating. Top-performing undergraduates are offered a six-month internship within The Emirates Group, giving direct, hands-on exposure to the commercial aviation industry before graduation.
