520			_aWe conduct a survey on university undergraduate students and use the novel data set to investigate the possible determinants of overweight and obesity in the UAE. Our results indicate that being male, married, rich and non-national is associated with higher BMI and students with these features are in greater risk of overweight/obesity. For students originating from MENA countries, we find a positive effect for eating out, income and computer use.
