Warm Welcome: International Students Arrive at Louvain School of Management for an Exciting Academic Journey
The halls of LSM were buzzing with excitement as we warmly welcomed our international students from across the globe. With a commitment to support a diverse and inclusive academic environment, we ensured a smooth transition for our newest cohort of international students. Accompanied by a friendly team of university staff and student volunteers, the newcomers received a heartfelt welcome to their new home away from home.
Diversity and Inclusivity at the Heart of LSM
International students are a testament to our commitment to diversity and inclusivity. Coming from over 40 countries, they create a rich mix of cultures, languages, and perspectives that enriches their academic experience.
"We are proud of our diverse community of students, faculty, and staff. This diversity not only favours global understanding but also enhances the quality of education and research at our institution." Isabelle Schuiling, Vice-Dean of International Affairs.
Orientation Programmes and Cultural Exchange
WinWeek is an orientation programme that has been put in place to introduce international students to life at LSM. It includes sessions on housing, academic advice, and campus facilities.
Moreover, LSM promotes cultural exchange and understanding through various events, clubs, and organisations. International students are encouraged to take part in these activities, allowing them to share their own cultures and learn about others.
Building a Global Network
We understand the importance of building a global network, and international students play a vital role in this goal. By creating cross-cultural friendships and academic collaborations, LSM aims to prepare its students to grow in an interconnected world.
"We believe that the friendships and connections formed during your time at LSM will last a lifetime" said Pierre Spineux, International Exchange Student Coordinator. "We are here to support you every step of the way."
As international students settle into their new home, our faculty is committed to ensure they have the resources and support they need to succeed academically and personally. With open arms and a vibrant community, the stage is set for a memorable and enriching academic journey at LSM.
