At this University, the only state university in Lebanon, there is an Italian language assistantship (lettorato) funded by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI).
The courses are taught at the Center for Languages and Translation of the Faculty of Letters and Human Sciences located in New Rawda, in the Christian area of the first suburb east of the city.
The language assistant, whose assignment ends in 2025, is assigned extra-curricular work at the Italian Embassy in Beirut.
