KAREL DE GROTE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE

Karel De Grote University has the largest campus in Antwerp. It is an institution with a very youthful look as it is very attentive to the needs of each individual student. In fact many initiatives, such as "have a coffee with the teacher", are promoted with the intent to get closer to the kids and their problems in facing university life: a room where lodge, the stress and anxiety of failure, the lack of support from the family point of view. The teachers follow each student individually and are open dialogues about study methods and they pay attention to the difficulties of learning a subject. The Visual Arts department is called Saint Lucas and offers Graphic design courses, Photography, Jewelry design, Illustration and Free Arts. At the end of the year the students exhibit the work done during the course in an exhibition open to the public on campus. Karel De Grote in fact invest a lot in the active life of its campus: there is always something to see or experience inside and in the surroundings, like a workshop, an educational reading, a cineforum or a large exhibition and also some festivals.
