Higher Education in Libya

Libya's higher education sector, supervised by the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, includes around 20 public universities and a growing number of private institutions. The University of Tripoli (formerly Al-Fateh University, est. 1957) and University of Benghazi are the oldest and largest. Political instability since 2011 has disrupted university operations and hindered quality assurance efforts. Arabic is the primary medium of instruction.
