    The Lebanese American University (LAU) has cemented its strong performance across several UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the 2026 Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings. Its upward trajectory for the past four years fortifies its standing as a leading global university in social responsibility. LAU ranked third globally in SDG 1: No Poverty—up from the fifth position last year—thanks to its extensive scholarship and financial aid offering. In SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, it placed 19th—a testament to the many initiatives, programs, and curricula that significantly enhance graduates’ employability and access to economic opportunity. Another significant feat is its 24th placement in SDG 17: Partnership for the Goals, which illustrates the university’s reach through its broad network of local, national, and international collaborations. Overall, the institution secured the 55th position globally and the first rank nationally, demonstrating a steady rise since 2023, when it was placed in the 601-800 bracket, then in the 401-600 range in 2024, followed by a position in the 101-200 range last year.
