University of Luxembourg

--- CONTENT ---
The University of Luxembourg, founded on 1 January 1998, is the only public university in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

Location

The university has three campuses:
Kirchberg Campus (Faculty of Science, Technology and Communication);
Campus Limpertsberg (Faculty of Law, Economics and Finance);
Campus Belval (Faculty of Arts, Humanities, Arts and Education Sciences; House of Biomedicine)

Since the completion of the "Knowledge House" in 2015, the university has gradually moved to a new site in Esch-Belval. The creation of a single campus is a major challenge where student participation is sought by management.

It consists of three faculties and three interdisciplinary centres including the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History.

Languages
One of the peculiarities of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is its multilingualism: the inhabitants of the country are polyglots and the courses of the university are often given in two (or even three) languages: English/German, French/German or English/French. Language seminars are planned for students who need language support.

The missions of the university
The University of Luxembourg has three missions:
Provide quality education;
Valuing research;
Promote the exchange of internationally advanced knowledge.
