Beirut Arab University

Masters, Doctorate

Teaching in biology encourages self-learning. Students are required to give presentation in many courses. Most biology courses accompanying laboratory courses to enhance the hands-on techniques of the students and their understanding of the basic material given.

The main theme of the research in the Biology department is health and well-being where faculty members aim at studying human disorders at the molecular level. Other researches tackles environmental problems and studies microbial and organic contaminants in the environment.
