AUB and the Architecture Department. I've been told that out of the entire city of Beirut, the campus of AUB makes up 1/4 of its green space. Unfortunately its not public, fortunately, I get to go there everyday for work. I leave about 7 minutes from campus. So all this time, I have spoke about the city and the greater country...and haven't mentioned about what I actually have been doing day to day.
The University was founded in 1866 by American missionaries, but now stands today as a secular, private and independent university. The student body is primarily Lebanese. There are approx. 7,500 students on this amazing 72 acre seaside campus.
I teach in the Architecture and Design Building in the faculty of Engineering and Architecture. With classes almost daily, teaching studios and elective courses...
Here are some websites of the student work:
