Additionally, the institutions of higher education in the country provide in-depth training allowing students to have high chances of obtaining a suitable long-term job without risk of having the degree or degrees rendered invalid. Furthermore, Libya provides an opportunity to study Arabic, a commonly spoken language in many Arab countries, allowing students to master a tongue which can be of advantage when working in industries or fields of study with strong associations to these countries. The sovereign state is also a suitable location to participate in internship programs on the subjects of Marketing, Business, Finance & Banking, Accounting, Law & Jurisprudence, Computer Science, Engineering, Architecture as well as Design. However, students should keep in mind that one or more of the institutions of higher education might have a dress code that should be adhered to.
