Haute École EPHEC

Founded in 1969, EPHEC (École Pratique des Hautes Études Commerciales) is a major institution of higher education in the Walloon-Brussels Federation. True to its motto 'Higher education focused on the professional world', it prioritizes an inductive pedagogical approach that places the student at the heart of concrete situations from the beginning of their course. Spread across several modern campuses in Brussels and Louvain-la-Neuve, EPHEC offers a human-sized learning environment conducive to exchanges with teachers and industry professionals. The school offers professional bachelor's degrees and master's programs in four major future sectors: Business, Tech, Health, and Education, as well as a vast network of international partners to encourage student mobility.
