Cabinet Approves New Master’s and Bachelor’s Programs at USAL

The Lebanese Cabinet approved, on October 1, 2026, the issuance of licensing decrees (Minutes No. 78, Decision No. 6-1) to establish two Master’s degree programs: Master in Artificial Intelligence and Master in Cybersecurity within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at the University of Sciences and Arts in Lebanon (USAL).

Furthermore, the Cabinet approved the licensing of two Bachelor’s degree programs in Special Education and Early Childhood, making them independent degree programs after previously being offered as concentrations within the Bachelor of Elementary Education program. This shift allows for broader development of both programs, enhances their academic identity and value, and addresses evolving educational and professional needs.

The University of Sciences and Arts in Lebanon (USAL) reaffirms its commitment to developing its academic programs and delivering modern, high-quality education aligned with scientific and technological advancements, societal demands, and labor market needs, thereby unlocking promising academic and professional horizons for its students and graduates.
