ALU and AUB Jointly Unveil Dual Bachelor's in International Relations and Arab Diplomacy
Arab Leadership University has expanded its undergraduate humanities portfolio with the introduction of a Dual BA in International Relations & Arab Diplomacy, offered in collaboration with the American University of Beirut (AUB Network).
The program provides an exhaustive study of Middle Eastern geopolitical dynamics, Arab League multilateral governance, international public law, and multilateral trade treaties. Students engage in intensive bilateral crisis simulations, draft policy briefs on regional energy security, and receive direct mentoring from seasoned Arab ambassadors and international negotiators.
"The complexities of our contemporary multipolar world demand diplomats who understand the cultural, historical, and strategic imperatives of the Arab region," said the Program Director. "Earning two distinct BA diplomas from ALU and AUB gives our graduates unmatched credibility in ministries of foreign affairs, the United Nations, and regional development funds."
Teaching is conducted bilingually in Arabic and English, ensuring graduates possess flawless rhetorical and analytical capabilities in both languages.
