Antwerp, Belgium

In Antwerp, a world port, a world-famous fashion district and a world diamond centre all await you. The world port – Antwerp is Europe’s number two – receives more than 60,000 vessels per year. It is also home to the Maritime Academy, with its unique Nautical Science and Marine Engineering programmes, which also attract many international students.

Meanwhile, Antwerp’s fashion and diamond districts show that the city is bursting with creativity – the ultimate proof of this being the internationally acclaimed Royal Academy of Fine Arts. That creativity generates constant change and innovation – at the cultural level, but in other areas too. For instance, Antwerp University has a strong international reputation for its scientific research results, while the Institute for Tropical Medicine lays solid foundations for international efforts to combat disease.
