Notre Dame University–Louaize (NDU; Arabic: جامعة سيدة اللويزة) is a private Catholic university in Zouk Mosbeh, Lebanon, founded as Louaize College for Higher Education in 1978 in cooperation with Beirut University College. The name was changed to its present name on August 14, 1987, when the President of the Lebanese Republic issued a decree (number 4116), granting the right to operate an independent university. NDU is accredited by NECHE (The New England Commission of Higher Education), and currently ranked fifth in Lebanon, according to its presence on the Web by the Webometrics Ranking of World Universities.
