PROGRAM RATIONALE
The focus of Gulf Region and UAE in specific on non-oil sectors for developing its
economy is a commendable strategy. Hence, there has been rapid growth in the contribution
to GDP from areas like manufacturing, food, retail, real estate, automobile, airlines,
ports, hospitality, medical, educational, financial and other service sectors to
name a few. The efforts of government of UAE resulted in the placement of many of
its educated manpower in different positions in government, semi government, and
private organizations during the ?boom? period wherein the participation of the
workforce has increased substantially. This young Arab population along with the
first and second generation expats groomed in the region is soon to become the managerial
workforce at various organizations and hence need to be given a strong base in management
knowledge and skills. SUC MBA is pursuing the ambition and goal to serve and educate
