Founded by the Presbyterian Church, USA, in 1924, LAU is a private American not-for-profit higher education institution.

One of the top academic institutions in the Middle East, LAU graduates over 1,300 students each year in its Schools of Arts & Sciences, Business, Engineering and Architecture, and Pharmacy. The university has 433 faculty members; 5,900 students at the undergraduate and graduate levels; and two campuses, located in Beirut and Byblos. The university's world class programs, prominent faculty members and forward-thinking strategies have led to a remarkable 500% growth in its student body over the last 32 years. Its current student body represents sixty-eight nationalities, and its graduates are employed at leading companies around the world.

The BIA was founded in 2003 as a consultative body; its members are exceptional international leaders from a variety of influential fields, including business, academia and government. The group's goal is to identify major strategic issues, provide a clear understanding of the external environment, recognize new opportunities and advantageous alliances, and support the LAU President and Board of Trustees with strategic decisions that advance the university toward achieving its mission and fulfilling its purpose. The BIA also guides decisions regarding academic programs, strategic planning, finance and budgeting, fund raising, public relations, marketing, student recruitments, placement and internships, and achieving excellence in all university endeavors.

"I am humbled and honored to be chosen to serve on this distinguished board," said Boulos. "Despite exceptionally challenging economic and political environments, LAU has remained steadfastly faithful to its mission of empowering students with the outstanding education they need to meet real-world challenges and succeed as working professionals. I look forward to playing an active role in preserving the university's legacy and widening its students' vision of life's potential."
