Annual Dubai Study Trip
Mar 1, 2020

Location Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Description Dr Jaradat has led an exceptional annual international study trip to Dubai which provided students with a world-class experience, including opportunities to connect with global industry leaders and key professional bodies in the construction industry including the chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT). The students also had exceptional access to construction sites at various stages of completion including the Cavalli Tower (a luxury residential project), DAMAC Lagoons (Mediterranean-inspired villas), DAMAC Hills (a self-contained community comprising villas, apartments and a hotel) and a 3D Printed Building by Nakheel (1 in 7 3D printing projects in Dubai). Several links were instigated with leading employers who are interested in employing ENU graduates, distance learning, and PhD opportunities to upskill their own employees such as DAMAC (a leading Real Estate Developer of luxury properties in Dubai & UAE); NEA (an international chartered professional quantity surveying practice); AE7 (is a global multi-disciplinary design firm); Fam Properties (real estate consultancy), Dubai Municipality, Dubai Economic Department, Emirates Green Building Council, AtkinsRéalis (a world-leading design, engineering and project management organisation), Allanton Group (specialists in development, investment, and asset management); Linesight (construction consultants) and much more. The students also had the opportunity to interact with former students who now work for firms such as CBRE (global leaders in commercial property). The trip involved a wide range of formal and informal activities including a visit to the award-winning Dubai Frame which holds a record for the largest frame in the world and is also an observatory, museum, and monument. The students also visited the Global Village and explored various pavilions, decorated in style of different countries and cultures. Other social events involved a lunch at the Trump International Golf Club restaurant and a networking dinner at the Jumeirah Residential Beach which has Dubai Ain (the world's highest observation wheel). Students who participated in the trip wrote articles in the CIAT | aspiration magazine in 2020 and 2024 issues.
