KU Leuven Technologiecampus Oostende en Brugge

The technology campusses are the newest West-Flemish campusses from KU Leuven. They are the result of the integretion of the academic educational program of VIVES-Noord (previously KHBO) and KU Leuven. Currently the campus is established on 2 locations: Oostende en Brugge, although it is the intention to provide, from the academic year 2017/2018, all educational programs in Brugge. A new building will be erected for this purpose.

It is obvious that the educational programs from Brugge and Oostende will closly cooperate with Kulak, in the south of the province West-Flanders. The campus Kulak is already for 50 years a part of KU Leuven. The educational programs in Oostende and Brugge are striving after the same pedagogic and didactic perspectives. It wants to be a "warm-hearted" campus, where everyone is welcome. It is a small scale project of which the trumps radiate on our triple mission: education, research and provision of services.
