International Days

Beirut and Byblos campus

The International Services and Programs Office invites LAU students and faculty to attend the upcoming International Days, which will be hosted on both campuses on April 15, 16, and 17, 2025.

The International Days focus on cultural immersion, diversity, inclusion, and international education. It aims to connect the world to LAU students and, eventually, them to the world. LAU will host different embassies, international universities, international educational institutions, and organizations that will present their cultures and potential opportunities for students at LAU. The event will address various topics and discussion forums that revolve around international education’s challenges, opportunities, and advantages and will shed light on its importance to the region’s youth.
