 Factors Influencing Students' Academic Performance at a Middle Eastern American Oriented University in Lebanon (1978 – 1998)

By: Father Toni Rahi (O.M.M.)

The book (an academic field study withing the framework of Notre Dame University-Lebanon, which follows the American curriculum, conducted between 1993 and 1998) looks into the factors that influence the student’s performance, such as administrative flexibility, program’s reliability, up-to-date methods of teaching and others, as well as the curricula that meet the societal needs in the light of complex problems and career developments, and give students the required general background which will enable them to assume leadership positions.

The study revealed that the level of students’ satisfaction was related not only to the general atmosphere prevalent at the institution but above all to the pursuit of excellence.  It also showed that female students performed better than their male counterparts.

The work as a whole contributes significantly to the development of higher education in Lebanon by presenting new educational strategies that help in the development of the level of management and administration in general.
