| mission |
The Vrije Universiteit Brussel is a dynamic and modern university with two parkland campuses in the Brussels-Capital Region.
High quality education and research are central focal points. Our research teams are internationally recognised in many disciplines of fundamental and applied research. We offer quality education to more than 9000 students. Add to that the almost 4500 students of our partner, the Erasmushogeschool Brussels, the 5000 students at the Centre for Adult Education that shares our campus, and the more than 150 research teams working on both our campuses, and you get one of the largest centres of knowledge in the capital of Europe. Thanks to this expertise and its strategic location, the Vrije Universiteit Brussel is your ideal partner for prestigious research and education with an outlook on Europe and the world.
The Vrije Universiteit Brussel gives you space to breathe, quite literally. The buildings of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel are spread out across two pleasant green campuses. Activities mainly take place in the many lecture halls and laboratories, all supplied with the most up-to-date equipment. Modern sports facilities with sports halls, fitness rooms, tennis and squash courts, and a swimming pool can be found on site. The student restaurant offers a large choice of meals and snacks at the self-service counters, and a refreshing beer can be tasted in the KultuurKaffee and Opinio, two bars on campus.
