Newsweek lists building among ten Quirkiest College Campuses
5 October 2022, Dubai, UAE: The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) Dubai Innovation Center has been named among the ten Quirkiest College Campus designs in a recent listing by the American magazine, Newsweek. The building, which is the centrepiece of the University’s new campus in Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO), has been recognized alongside structures across the globe for its creative, avant-garde design.

Built with an overarching theme of interactive learning, the DSO campus was conceptualized as a bitboard, with the Innovation Center representing the glass piece that makes the whole grid operational. It is intended to act as a magnet to attract and connect the different functions of the University in a central space.
