Activities intended for secondary education

Information sessions

Different formulas make it possible to address the specificities of university studies. These modular information sessions are the chance to decipher the teaching landscape in French-speaking Belgium and to prepare final year students to research information. Our information contacts also make students aware of the importance of seriously thinking over their study projects and asking themselves the right questions.

“Studying at the University of Liège" formula

This session is provided in 2 parts. It begins with a presentation which addresses the organisation of university studies, their particularities, the training programmes at the University of Liège, the support offered to future students and students (preparation, aid during the programme...) and life on the campuses. This presentation is generally followed by a Q&A, distribution of documentation and individual exchanges, and if needed in the presence of informers of the various Faculties.

“University studies" formula

The University of Liège also offers information sessions on university teaching. Organisation of studies, specific features of the different types of teaching, secondary/university transition, student support...are addressed during a presentation. This can also be followed by an information hub in the presence of ULiège faculty representatives. Within the Liège-Luxembourg Centre, this presentation is carried out in partnership with the higher learning institutions of the Centre.
