Goal 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

The Modern University for Business and Science is a Lebanese institution of higher education that is devoted to empowering innovation and inspiring youth. On the path to fulfilling its mission, MUBS has invested all of its resources into the constant development of an environment conducive to learning. The result has been the creation of a diverse and closely-knit academic community that is fully committed to creating a life-long learning community. The MUBS educational spirit is one of respect, integrity and inspiration and is meant to constantly motivate members of its community to leap forward and aim higher.

MUBS applies practice-oriented study. Disciplines such as Education, Business, Health Science, Design, and Computer Science have boards of advisors made up of leaders in the field. These advisors influence academic faculty on the latest needs of the market and on curriculum changes needed to meet these needs.

In line with its culture of community service and promoting public health and awareness in under-served areas of Lebanon, MUBS received a grant from the World Health Organization (WHO) to work jointly with Champs NGO and leading scholars to support school health in disadvantaged rural areas. MUBS is conducted for the common good and not for the interest of the individual faculty member or the university as a whole. The common good depends on the free search for truth and its exposition. Thus, MUBS has a Policy on Academic Freedom that encourages professional autonomy and academic freedom in teaching and research in all disciplines.
