HELB campus
The campus of the educational institution is located in Brussels. This opens up all the delights of life in a big city for students: a rich infrastructure, a large selection of entertainment, convenient transport, as well as more opportunities for internships or part-time jobs. However, for some students, such an abundance of opportunities can be distracting. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. Foreigners who come to HELB through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
