About the College of Engineering -Rafik Hariri University

Overview of the CE

The College of Engineering at Rafik Hariri University (RHU) was established in 1999. Since then, the College has grown significantly and presently offers six undergraduate engineering programs in Biomedical, Civil, Computer and Communications, Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics Engineering.

Fully accredited by the Lebanese Ministry of higher education, the college is working with each department towards accreditation by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET – the most prestigious accrediting agency worldwide.

The College was established in order to fill a perceived gap that existed in high-caliber, yet affordable, higher education in technology and associated fields. The college strives to apply learning methodologies that can transform entrant students into 21-century leaders in their respective fields.

Furthermore, the college stresses the important balance between knowledge-skills and application. To the latter’s effect, specialized Labs, modern class rooms, and a unique Co-op experience are implemented.
