International/Openness

The Erasmus exchange programme usually takes place during the master's course. However, there are bilateral agreements (double degree agreements) enabling you to study abroad from the 3rd block of the bachelor's course to the end of the 1st block of the master's course.

Some of the subsequent masters in engineering are organised jointly with VUB in English

Progression per curriculum unit

The concept of a year of studies gives way to a system of accumulation of credits based on the student's individual programme. The cycle programme is offered in units of 60 credits. The units of 60 credits are proposed as an "ideal" course of study for students enrolled in this programme. The first 60 credits are a compulsory requirement for each curriculum programme of the bachelor's degree. Students are required to obtained the first 45 credits in order to continue the curriculum. Beyond this, students must register each year for a minimum of 60 credits (except for shortened programme or final year).
