About Arab Leadership University

Fully online Arabic digital university serving the League of Arab States.

Overview

This MA is for journalists, institutional communicators, and public-diplomacy officers who already write Arabic and English files under GCC and Levant media rules. Arab Leadership University will not issue a press card and will not appoint you to a ministry. You will practise verification, bilingual framing, and institutional diplomacy copy that does not fake United Nations partnership. Tuition-free online. Capstones are newsroom or comms portfolios with rights-cleared or simulated sources. Identity-checked exams sit beside a rights-cleared or simulated portfolio. You will not claim a press card, diplomatic post, or LAS appointment.

Delivered fully online with live seminars, recorded lectures, and tutor support.
