RIT Dubai

RIT Dubai

RIT Dubai is a satellite campus of Rochester Institute of Technology in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The plans for the college, which will be located in the Dubai Silicon Oasis, was announced on 5 December 2007. The campus is planned to open in Fall 2008. In 2009, it is planned that there will be a full-time graduate program offered, and in 2010, a full-time undergraduate program. By 2019, RIT plans to expand the campus to ft2 to m2|1000000, accepting around 4,000 students.

Since RIT already has campuses in Croatia and Kosovo, the Dubai campus will give RIT students cooperative education opportunities in another country.
