Advisory Board

The School of Engineering at LAU brings together experienced leaders through its Advisory Board who share a commitment to our students and the school’s future. Their knowledge and perspectives will help us build on our strengths and respond to the changing needs of the engineering profession. The Board will offer guidance on the school’s priorities, help build stronger partnerships with industry, and open doors for student mentorship, research collaboration, and entrepreneurship. These connections will give our students more opportunities to learn from professionals and put their ideas into practice. We look forward to working with the Board to enrich our students’ education, support our faculty’s work, and extend the school’s contribution to Lebanon and beyond.
