The LAU Department of Economics is pleased to announce the co-organizing of the Beirut Economics Research Seminar Series for the Spring 2025 semester. This series is a joint initiative between the Department of Economics at LAU and the Department of Economics at AUB. 

Sessions will be held every two weeks from 3:30 to 4:45 p.m. alternating between the LAU and AUB campuses.
