Location and Climate

RHU is located in Mechref, Damour, 20 kilometers south of Beirut. The campus sits on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, above the Mechref Village, a residential project with altitudes ranging from 30 to 560 meters above sea level. The climate is moderately cold from December to March and moderately hot from June to September.

The 54,000-m2 campus has nine main buildings. Seven buildings are used for educational purposes, one for the administration, and one for faculty and student residences.

The lush greenness of the RHU campus creates a refreshing ambience and provides further incentive for students to pursue their academic goals. The green lawns provide ample space for students to study, relax, or socialize. The mosaic of blue, green, and white – a blue sky, green lawns, and white buildings – of the RHU campus is itself splendor.
