International

The international function aims at entertaining International students and to make their student life more fun. Even though we represent the internationals, all our events are organized for both the Dutch and international students to bring the two groups closer to each other while ensuring that they meet, compete, and have fun!

Events

Even before the academic year starts, they organise activities to welcome the new incoming students by taking part in the Orientation Days and showing Leuven around with walks, bike tours and pub crawls. But also by showing other parts of Belgium with a day city trip in another city of the country! In addition to that, they organise quizzes, parties at our faculty bar Recup, board games night and Talent Shows throughout the year. Moreover, a lot of our work goes in organising different events for the Go Global week with the help of the other Science, Engineering and Technology student unions.

Belgian traditions

With these events, they also invite the International students to have a taste of the Belgian student traditions. This is done by showing other cities of Belgium and offering an International Hazing in the first semester with the schachtenmeester (the Industria member responsible for the first years), but also International cantusses throughout the year. That way, International students are sure of experiencing the real Leuven student life!
