Murdoch University Dubai is a core branch campus of Murdoch University in Perth, Australia – one of the Top 100 Young Universities in the World and also a PRCA University Partner. It focuses on offering flexible learning options to allow students to design their course of study in accordance with their own personal requirements.

We partner with industry to give our students regular interactions with working professionals in their disciplines. Our students also have access to internship experiences, so that they already have experiences using what they have learned in actual workplace settings. We are very excited to partner with PRCA, one of the leading PR associations globally, and open doors to new opportunities, so that we can work together to enhance the experiences of our Communications students.”
