I spent 3 years at USJ in the faculty of pharmacy, school of medical analysis laboratory technicians (ETLAM). The school was well organized, the lessons very clear with excellent teachers and access to the university's laboratories, which were also well equipped. I recommend those who wish to work as clinical laboratory technicians to continue their studies at USJ. The lessons are given in French, but we also had English lessons to improve our skills in this language. Student life at USJ is friendly, that said, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the timetable is decided beforehand, the student cannot choose his own schedule as in other universities in Lebanon.

I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
