What Programs and Majors Does Beirut Arab University Offer?

Updated

Beirut Arab University (bau.edu.lb) offers a broad catalog of programs across bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, organized in an A–Z directory on its website. Each entry shows the degree level and the campus where it is offered — Beirut, Debbieh, Tripoli, or Bekaa — so the same field can appear at several sites or at only one. The list below reflects the programs visible in the site's directory excerpt; for the complete, current catalog, use the "Explore Our Programs" / "Find Your Major" section of the university site.

How the program catalog is organized

The directory lists each program with three pieces of information:

  • Field of study (e.g., Accounting, Civil Engineering, Nursing)
  • Degree level — Bachelor, Master, PhD, MBA, MArch
  • Campus — Beirut, Debbieh, Tripoli, or Bekaa

Programs are sorted alphabetically, so you can scan by field name rather than by faculty. A single field often appears at multiple levels and campuses — for example, Accounting is listed as a Bachelor (Beirut, Debbieh, Tripoli), a Master (Beirut), and a PhD (Beirut), plus an MBA in Accounting & Finance (Beirut, Tripoli).

How to choose among the options

Use the campus column as a first filter: engineering and most science programs cluster at Debbieh and Tripoli, while medicine, pharmacy, and several health and business programs are based in Beirut. Computer Engineering is the one program in this excerpt also listed at Bekaa.

Then match the degree level to your goal — a Bachelor for first-entry study, a Master or MBA for graduate specialization, and a PhD for research-track study. Where a field appears at several levels (Accounting, Civil Engineering, Biology), the same department typically carries the subject through, which can matter if you plan to continue from one level to the next.

For specializations, note the named tracks: Biochemistry and Biology both offer a Computational Biology track, and Chemistry offers a Green and Sustainable Chemistry track, each at the Bachelor level in Debbieh and Tripoli.

Verify before applying

The excerpt above is a partial view of an alphabetical list, so it does not cover every program the university offers. Before relying on any entry, confirm on the official program page that the program is currently open, the campus is correct, and the degree level matches your application. Admission requirements, deadlines, and any language or entrance conditions are set by the university and should be checked directly with it rather than inferred from the directory listing.
