Study fields at ULB

Remark
|
Most courses are taught in French, but
several master programs in English are
organized by ULB within the BRUFACE organisation. These
courses are eligible for the exchange students coming fom an
Institution having an exchange agreement with ULB. Note that only
the BRUFACE and ULB master programs are eligible, the VUB master
programs are not eligible.

Selection of courses
Students applying for
a stay at ULB within an exchange agreement must select courses from the
list of courses organized by the Ecole polytechnique de
Bruxelles find more ...
-
only
the courses in the programs of 1st and 2nd cycle (study years 1 to 5)
are eligible
-
the
courses specific to other programs (i.e. master complémentaire,
formation complémentaire,
formation continue, ...) are not eligible and may not be selected, ne
peuvent pas être choisis, unless there is a prior explicit
agreement from the faculty coordinator at ULB
-
the possible
selection of courses organized by other faculties is also subject to an
explicit agreement on a case by case basis
-
when a course is
shared by different faculties, the number of credits in the curriculum
of Ecole polytechnique de
Bruxelles applies
The
selection of courses must be approved by the coordinator at the home
institution. The selection must the be sent to Mrs Rose-Marie
BRYNAERT (mail
address)
for a preliminar check, at least one month before arriving in
Brussels. The list of courses could possibly be modified later with
the
prior consent of the the coordinator of studies at the home university
and at Ecole polytechnique of
ULB.
Level of studies (*)
The selection of a
coherent list of courses is easier for students at the "master" level
(MA) (*). Ecole polytechnique de
Bruxelles encourages exchanges
at this level
of study. For students at the "bachelor" level, when agreed in the
exchange agreement, a
coherent course list can be selected only if the stay is for the full
academic year.

( * ) BA -
MA |
the
structure "Bachelor-Master" (BA-MA) corresponds to :
BA = study years 1 to 3
MA = study years 4 and 5
|
Course schedules
The
course schedules are available by study field and by professor ( find the link ...). These
schedules are subject to change from one academic year to another, but
the situation a year is a good first indication for the next year.
The master thesis - Internships
Students who will
carry out a master thesis during their stay at ULB (thesis, project or
internship) must choose the subject before their arrival in Brussels,
with the agreement of a professor at ULB (supevisor) and a professor
(co-supervisor) at the home university.

Warning
|
a
student will not be allowed to come to ULB without the prior approval
of the subject of his thesis (or
project or internship) by a supervisor and a
co-supervisor.

Language
Most courses are
taught in French (with the exception of BRUFACE which is fully in
English). Students are expected
to know enough French to be able to attend the classes. French courses
devoted to foreign students are organized by the "Service de
Mobilité Etudiante" ( to
know more ...). Admission to these
courses is available from this department.
Marks at the examinations
The marks obtained at
examinations on the subjects taken at ULB are sent to the home
university and validated for the curriculum of the student.
