Dating back to 1933, LAU’s Beirut campus is a walking distance from some of the city’s most renowned cultural and social hubs. Perched on a hillside overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the ancient city of Byblos, our other campus is home to state-of-the-art buildings such as the Chagoury Health Sciences Center and the Engineering Labs and Research Center.
