His relentless support to education and his pledge to uphold our youth prompted The American University of Sciences and Technology (AUST) to confer on Salim Sfeir a Doctor of Humane Letters Honoris Causa during the 15th Annual Commencement Ceremony on June 30th, 2016, at Biel.
This degree reveals Sfeir’s wide-sweeping focus on links between education and the new generation; to deep-rooting our youth in their homeland through securing an assured potential. Sfeir is absolutely a patron to our future generation.
