Take your experience into a different business environment
See how US teams approach customers, projects and commercial decisions. Build on your background in finance, engineering, technology or operations while earning with your employer.
Build on your experience in the UAE
Whether you are based in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or elsewhere in the UAE, your application should explain the work you have done. We review your projects, responsibilities and qualifications, then arrange a US placement that develops that background. If you are employed, share your notice period and preferred dates early.
If you studied elsewhere, include the institution country and graduation date alongside your current UAE residence. This helps us assess your programme from the start, while preparing a clear account of the experience you can bring to a US employer.
Plan around your existing commitments
We discuss your preferred start alongside your studies or notice period. UAE residents of different nationalities can apply; we review your individual background and confirm the next steps.
Clear terms before you commit
You receive a private proposal with the programme fee, inclusions and placement guarantee. Your employer pays you separately for the work you do.
We also set out the costs to budget for, including visa and SEVIS charges, insurance, flights and living expenses where these are not included. That gives you a clear picture of the move before you enrol.
A paid role, arranged through Aureus
Your programme includes CV and interview preparation, employer placement and J-1 coordination. We confirm your route against your education, experience and intended start, then give you a private proposal before you enrol. Your employer offer sets out the work, location, hours and pay.
Questions for your next step
Is the programme only for Emirati citizens?+
No. UAE-based applicants can have different nationalities and educational backgrounds. We review those details individually when confirming the programme and application steps.
Does my nationality or residence determine the process?+
Both may be relevant, but they are different facts. UAE residence alone does not establish US programme or entry eligibility.
Can I apply with a degree from another country?+
Potentially. Tell us the qualification, subject and institution country so they can be considered against the relevant programme criteria.
How should I plan around current employment?+
Begin with your intended timing and commitments. Review confirmed host and programme arrangements before making employment or travel decisions.
