Final comments
Learn some French before arriving because you may need it; not everyone speaks English even though Brussels is very cosmopolite. It is also recommedable to try to communicate in French when you first arrive to the university. If you have the time, do learn some Flemish, there are a lot of courses and also affordable ones.

“Très bonne école”
Yassin A

Engineering, Computer, 2020
Overall
J'étudie l'informatique à la HE2B ESI et c'est une bonne école ou on nous apprend bien l'informatique via pas mal de travaux pratiques et de projets à effectuer tout seul ou en binôme. Ce qui nous permet de devenir autonome et de mettre en pratique ce qu'on a vu a certains cours.

Personal comments
Local supermarchés have good last-day offers in foodstuffs, so it is a good idea to scan through the stores and try to find -30% offers. The last-day offers are mainly pizzas, yoghurts etc. They also have store brands that are cheaper than brand products. It was a little surprise that people purchase their garbage bags, shopping bags are not accepted for garbage tossing.

“Apprendre à devenir autodidacte”
Haesaerts A
Belgium, Undergraduate
Informatics, 2020
Overall
Les cours étant basés principalement sur des projets, nous devions faire face à des problèmes non vus au cours.
Cela nous a permis de faire des recherches efficaces sur internet ainsi que les interpréter correctement.
