The Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and the
Université catholique de Louvain are sister universities teaching
respectively in Dutch and in French. They were historically a single
institution, the Universitas Catholica Lovaniensis, founded in 1425 and
teaching in Latin at the time. Both institutions are strong research
universities. KULeuven is located in Leuven, in the Dutch speaking region of
Belgium. UCL is now located in Louvain-la-Neuve, in the French speaking reagion
of Belgium and in Brussels.
The engineering faculties of these two institutions have decided
to work as a single actor on the international scene with the label
EFL2
meaning Engineering Faculties
of Leuven and Louvain
|
|
- The Engineering Faculties of Leuven
and Louvain are members of CLUSTER as a single entity and have joint
representatives in most CLUSTER departments and task forces.
- The two faculties share the same objectives of excellence
and cooperate in research and teaching.
- Students enlisted in each faculty, either as local
students or as exchange students may take courses in the other one as well as
locally. Direct trains link the two campuses.
