Why a Vlerick Masters
6 major assets:
1. Dynamic approach
Our faculty stimulate teamwork and active participation in class. Many lectures are built on real company cases or testimonials from entrepreneurs and business leaders from a variety of companies.
2. Real world in-company project
Before graduation, you spend 2 to 4 months in a company to conduct a consultancy project. This project challenges you to apply the theoretical concepts you have acquired during the programme to a real management problem.
3. Career services and placement
The Vlerick Career Services staff assist you in your pursuit of a challenging job through a mix of company presentations, job fairs, personal coaching, networking with alumni, online CV guide, job postings and much more.
4. International study trip
During the programme, you will embark on three off-campus seminars. A 3-day opening seminar, a one-week international trip and a closing seminar to reflect on the past year. Previous destinations for the international study trip have been Dublin, Madrid, London, Krakow and Budapest.
5. Studying in the heart of Europe
Many countries claim to be “at the heart of Europe” − but only Belgium really is! Based in the medieval cities of Ghent and Leuven, you are less than two hours from Paris, whilst Frankfurt, London and Amsterdam are only three hours away.
6. Outstanding research and teaching quality
Our faculty members are not just academics. In addition to holding PhD degrees, the majority of them have also gained managerial experience in a range of international environments.
