Dear Students,
In my first meeting with the faculty and staff of the Rafik Hariri University (RHU), I stated my sincere belief that, at a university, students come first followed by faculty members. The staff and administration are there to facilitate the work of the faculty members to excel in teaching and to make your journey at RHU a memorable experience. I pledge to make every effort to improve campus life and to continue our tradition of excellence in teaching. I plan on meeting with all the students in groups and I welcome your input.
You are all aware that institutions of higher learning across Lebanon/region/the world are experiencing challenging times, both economically and socially. While RHU is not immune to factors in the external environment, we have a lot of success stories at this institution that we are very proud of. Together we have to prioritize all initiatives and ensure that this institution will endure to fulfill its Founder’s mission. You and the alumni are our ambassadors to the outside world. Help us advertise our excellence so as to increase enrollment of top caliber students. Increased enrollment results in improved infrastructure and increases diversity in University offerings.
Critical thinkers, passionate learners, and creative problem solvers. Those are the characteristics of RHU students and alumni who are inspired by dedicated faculty members to become leaders in their respective professions. I am proud and honored to emphasize some of the many recent achievements of RHU students, alumni and faculty members.
RHU has a beautiful campus nestled among pine trees. It has a team of dedicated faculty and staff committed to the success of its students. I am proud to be joining this team and together we should aspire to reach new heights.
