IDP Education hosting top universities on the Middle East Roadshow

20 top universities from UK, USA and Canada will be taking part in IDP's Multi Destination Roadshow.

The exhibition, which will be held in 9 cities across the Middle East, will give prospective students and their families a chance to meet and interact with university representatives and international officers from a number of top universities from UK, USA and Canada. Some of the universities that will be represented include those from the prestigious Russell Group in the UK including the University of Birmingham, University of Nottingham and University of Sussex

The diverse range of universities including pathway providers such as Navitas and Study Group will allow potential students not just learn about the various bachelors, masters and PhD programmes but also foundation and English language courses.

Maher El Bakry, Regional Director of IDP Education in the Middle East said “The IDP Multi Destination roadshow is a unique opportunity for prospective students across the Middle East to learn first-hand about the excellent educational opportunities available in key education hubs such as the UK, USA and Canada.”

Courses such as business management and engineering have always been popular with students from the Middle East, however recently there has been an increase in more specialized degrees such as media studies, communications and logistics, forensic science and supply chain management.

IDP Education is the largest provider of student placement services in the world with over 90 offices in more than 30 countries including 12 offices across the Middle East. To date, IDP has placed more than 300,000 students into universities, colleges and other educational institutions in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and New Zealand.
