Welcome to the University College HENALLUX
Dear student,
You have chosen to study a part of your academic curriculum at the University College of Namur-Liège-Luxembourg: together with the students and the staff members, I wish you welcome. On top of the teacher team and the administration staff of the department in which you have registered, the office of International Relations and the offices of our University College will go out of the way to bring your stay up to the hopes you have nourished.
To spend a part of one’s curriculum in mobility means for a student to join an institution which one’s home institution trusts. On the six campuses spread over three provinces in the south of Belgium, our University College proposes to its students a training of good professional and intellectual quality.
To spend a part of one’s curriculum in mobility also means to be open to other habits, to other ways of life, to another culture. We will be happy to know more about yours, and give you every opportunity to discover the richness and diversity of ours.
To spend a part of one’s curriculum in mobility is, last but not least, to live a human experience made of meetings; we hope the meetings you make here will be full of enthusiasm and will allow you to bind sustainable professional and personal links.
Along the pages of this brochure, we hope you can discover several means to help you appreciate the unique adventure offered by the various partnerships in which we are committed with you.
Benoit DUJARDIN
Director-president
