Human RIGHTS
AUT was a trailblazer in human rights education, introducing a mandatory Human Rights course for all students in 2005. This initiative set a precedent that was later adopted by other universities in Lebanon and the Arab region.
Lifelong Education
AUT is an active member of the governing board of the International Association of Universities of the Third Age (IAUTA), a global movement dedicated to fostering continuous learning for individuals in their third age of life—those who are no longer engaged in full-time work. AUT supports this initiative by offering weekly lectures and crash courses on topics of interest, encouraging these learners to continue their educational journey and enjoy the experience of learning together.
