Student testimonials

Studying abroad always opens doors to new experiences. And what better place to live them than Brussels, a city that is influenced by all cultures from all around the world. Thanks to many international students, I was able to learn from each culture and expand my network. VUB has given me a new vision of the world.
Miguel Alejandro Chukiwanka Quiñones, from Peru
Master of Science in Management
Studying at VUB has been my best decision yet! The professors and staff are extremely inclusive and approachable. Being here has boosted my confidence and affirmed that anything is possible!
Stella Jee Chiayi, from Singapore
Bachelor of Sciences in Social Sciences
VUB has provided me with the skills and knowledge to kick-start my career. The courses helped me earn an internship in Brussels through which I’ve gained practical experience, and this has opened many doors. Additionally, as an international student, the activities helped me integrate and make lifelong friendships worldwide.
Guiomar Hernández, from Spain
Master of Science in Communication Studies
I chose to study at VUB because I earned a scholarship in my country. I wanted to study in an international environment, so VUB was the right place for me. I was excited when learning about this English-taught programme. Many examples from the real world are mentioned during the classes. Studying here has been an amazing experience!
Giovanny Rico, from Bolivia
Master of Science in Electrical Engineering
The factors that motivated me to apply for my master’s studies at VUB, were its high-quality education standards and the reputation of the university’s research facilities. I’m studying Biology (Ecology and Biodiversity track) to learn more about nature conservation and most importantly to be able to share this knowledge. I love studying at the VUB. Someone is always happy to help you with whatever you need, something us international students really appreciate!
