About the study place

Do you want to study in the heart of Europe? Then the University of Antwerp may be the school for you. Antwerp is a port city in Belgium and is only an hour away from the capital of Belgium, Brussels. The university is young, dynamic and future-oriented and has four campuses located around the city. The university offers many exciting fields of study and has a good overview on their website.

Antwerp has a lot to offer. There are many squares where you can take a break from your studies and just relax. If you are wondering what to do on a warm day, you can visit the beach St. Anneke or the Beguinage, which is a beautiful place that will remind you of a secret garden. You will also find the Museum of Plantin-Moretus. This museum brings thousands of books and the book printing back to life and you can take a look at the oldest printing presses in the world. This is the first museum to be listed on the World Heritage List. Antwerp is a city with an interesting culture, beautiful parks and exciting history.

The university disseminates and develops scientific knowledge through research and teaching. They want to learn their students to be critical and to reflect on scientific, social, philosophical and ethical questions. By doing this, they create the heroes of tomorrow who will be able to handle the challenges of the future.
