Admission requirements

As a general rule, every study programme comes with its own set of conditions. You will find all the requirements for your chosen programme by clicking 'admission requirements' under the 'programme' tab.

Which degree is required?

To participate in this programme you will need an academic bachelor’s or master’s degree in engineering or applied sciences. Admission is based on acceptance and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Will I need to sit an entrance exam?

You will not need to sit an entrance exam to begin the programme.

Are there any language requirements?

We accept the following proof of English language proficiency:

• A secondary school diploma from the Belgian educational system;
• A certificate from the institution where you completed secondary or higher education, stating that English was the language of instruction;
• A certificate of one of the following language tests corresponding to the Common European Framework of Reference with minimum level B2:
  • TOEFL (internet-based test) with minimum level: 79
  • IELTS academic module, with minimum level: 6.5
  • Cambridge English minimum grade scale score of 170
  • ITACE with minimum level B2
• Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we realise it may be tricky to take a test in person. So, we also accept the TOEFL IBT Special Home Edition and the IELTS Indicator. These are variants of the classic TOEFL and IELTS tests that can be taken at home.
• This proof can be provided by presenting results of a language test or documents issued by your home institution. Please note your language test results must not be older than 5 years at the moment of application.

If you do not have a proof of the sufficient level in English, we suggest to apply. If the evaluation of your academic background is positive and you meet all other criteria to be admitted, an online interview can be organised to assess your level of English. The final decision will be taken then.

Are there any other conditions?

Admission is based on acceptance and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Once accepted, there are no extra conditions you should meet before you can start this programme.
