“The American University of Beirut proves again that it is unique and a cornerstone amongst many universities, not only in the Middle East, but worldwide. The Pro-Green Diploma is one of the few professional graduate studies around the world, which focuses on the applied green technologies and tackles the day to day concerns facing the built environment industry with regards to sustainability. When I enrolled, the idea was to take few courses which are relevant to my work in energy optimization and sustainability. This continued until I suddenly discovered that I already completed the requirements for the diploma when I found myself automatically registered by the university for the final project. The diploma has widely been reflected in my work. Achieving the goals and acquiring the objectives of the courses added value to the tasks I usually do in my company such as energy audits, modeling, indoor environmental quality assessments, financial analysis, sustainable building designs, etc., despite my long work experience of around 20 years. Building services engineers, aiming to progress in their careers, will become well equipped by enrolling in this extraordinary program.”
