My story at the Faculty of Economics and Business, KU Leuven

"Before coming to study at KU Leuven’s Brussels Campus I studied Mining Engineering in Chile, my home country. After doing some research, I was convinced that KU Leuven was the best option to continue my studies. I was very excited to come to the other side of the world and learn as much as I could in one of the best universities in Europe. Now, I am convinced I made the right decision!"

"I chose the Master in International Business Economics and Management (MIBEM) programme because of its strong focus on international studies and the high-quality courses. The programme mixes theoretical classes with real business cases and guest lectures, which creates a highly dynamic way of learning and gives you real insights for your professional future."

"Students at the Faculty of Economics and Business in Brussels come from all over the world. As the MIBEM programme is for people with a degree in a discipline other than business or management, you can meet with people from all around the world who also have different backgrounds and learn from them, which makes this experience even more enjoyable."

"The faculty frequently organises events and meetings for international students that allow you to meet fantastic people and share your own experiences of living abroad. If you have any problems with your studies, there are always people who can help you and teach you how to manage your time."

"But there is more to do than studying of course! Whether you study in Leuven or in Brussels, you can enjoy and have millions of unforgettable moments during your stay in the country. Going to cities nearby almost became a weekend routine. I have visited beautiful places and met great people from a lot of different countries. Just make this experience one you will never forget!"
