There were already two Belgian universities in Quacquarelli Symonds’ top 200 list, and this year a third one has received the honour of being named among them.

The new kid on the block? UCLouvain, the university of Louvain-la-Neuve, has jumped from 203rd place all the way up to 191st.  

Next in the list is the University of Ghent, climbing from 169 to 162, and situated nicely within the 100 best is KU Leuven, occupying a comfortable 60th spot coming from 63. 

So, kids, if you want the finest international programmes and you’re looking for universities with solid environmental, social and governance strategies, you know in which country you can find them.
