A multicultural, multilingual university open to the world, UCL is a genuine research university that welcomes more international researchers with each passing year. Today, 40% of its research staff is international.  Among doctoral students, the proportion is nearly one in two.

The Welcome Desk Researchers is a service for international researchers that either arrive at UCLouvain (i.e., foreign Ph.D. students, postdocs, visiting professors, researchers) or are currently looking for opportunities to do so. These pages aim at helping you with your stay in Belgium.
