STUDENT SUCCESS STORIES

Why did you join DCT?

I joined DCT because of my passion for studying Tourism. This goes back to my childhood when I used to plan family vacations and was the most excited to go on trips. I first studied Tourism in Grade 10 where my interest sparked reading a case study about my hometown Dubai. The case study focused on the recent developments by Dubai Tourism that has put the glistening city on the world map as a top-notch tourist destination. I wanted to be a part of the tourism industry in Dubai and got the opportunity to enroll into a college that runs under the Umbrella of DTCM. I knew this decision would open a lot of doors for me and I am glad to say it did.

Tell us about your time as a student in DCT – what did you enjoy most?

My experience at DCT was great, the most exciting experiences were going out on trips and seeing the industry and the professionals in real life. Everything we studied in class would come to life during those trips and the concepts would then be registered in my mind. 

Why did you join DCT?

I found the available options hard to compare but once I met with representatives of DCT and had a lengthy conversation to fully understand what courses they offer, I knew that DCT would be the right choice for me. I believed that the variety of hospitality-based courses would create a fantastic atmosphere for the students making it easier for them to co-exist on the campus and make friends throughout the college and not only within your class.

What did you enjoy most?

The hospitality-based atmosphere was the perfect environment for new students to get comfortable quickly with each other, the campus as well as the style of teaching which I felt was unique to DCT. I truly enjoyed the number of excursions and site-visits that were extremely relevant to my course as we went to various food-establishments.
