Our goal is to create a culture of innovation, creativity, technicity, and to adapt the training to the evolution of the fashion field. ESMOD Beirut signed an agreement with the Universite Saint Joseph (USJ) in July 2017 allowing its students to benefit from the Bachelor Degree (BA or Licence) delivered by the Ministry of Higher Education. This partnership is a milestone in the history of ESMOD Beirut. The Lebanese Government has officially recognized its three-year intensive program (180 ECTS) as a BA.
