Meet President, Dr. Melik Peter Khoury
“At Unity Environmental University, we’ve started asking these questions with uncomfortable honesty. For instance, what if a four-year degree wasn’t the default credential but just one option among many? What if learners could stack credentials over time, earning value at every step without needing to commit to a full degree upfront? This shift from all-or-nothing thinking has allowed us to design programs that align with today’s learners’ realities, not yesterday’s system’s assumptions.”
