Office of International Relations

The Office of International Relations (OIR) at LIU exists to pursue the University’s internationalization aspirations. The OIR is responsible for developing and coordinating international relations and activities, including initiatives concerning student and staff mobility, international educational agreements, funding opportunities, and more.

Given the global orientation of the Lebanese International University, the Office of International Relations is an instrumental and indispensable asset in making significant progress toward that direction. Actions are underway to craft a strategic plan that sets out goals and objectives at various levels.

1. Internationalization: The office will develop and implement the strategic plan for internationalization, including adapting LIU’s curricula to align with international competences and standards and enhancing LIU’s profile and reputation.
2. In coordination with academic units, the office will forge partnerships with foreign universities to provide joint or dual degree programs, enhance the University’s international network, and participate in calls for international project proposals.
3. International reference point: As a central hub within the University, the OIR will manage and supervise all international activities and act as a reference for international student, faculty, and staff exchange and mobility.
4. International image and outreach: Step by step, the OIR will build LIU’s international profile and expand its reach to new audiences abroad.

1. The office will develop and manage international exchange and mobility opportunities for LIU students, faculty, and staff.
2. The office will assist students and staff with mobility, scholarship opportunities, exchange programs, and available grants.
3. The office will foster and maintain contact with alumni.
