Most Similar Schools Locally
- Haute École Libre Mosane shares the core fields of this institution, namely industrial design, civil engineering and chemistry; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's and master's, and has almost the same size, at about 8,000 students.
- Both schools build their programmes around industrial design, civil engineering and chemistry, and Haute École Louvain en Hainaut is the one to compare first within the country, since it is slightly larger, at about 10,000 students against roughly 7,500 here, and is also a private institution.
- For students who like the industrial design, automation and electrical and electronics focus of this school but want another option nearby, Haute École Léonard de Vinci fits well: it runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes and covers ergonomics as well.
- Haute École Robert Schuman offers a comparable education in civil engineering, electrical and electronics and life sciences: it covers agriculture as well, and is smaller, enrolling about 2,500 students against roughly 7,500 here.
- Think of Université de Namur when chemistry, life sciences and AI and machine learning is the priority: it is also a private institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- Brown University, in the United States, takes a similar route through life sciences, AI and machine learning and software engineering; it is also a private institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
- A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on life sciences, AI and machine learning and software engineering is Princeton University in the United States, and it also offers doctoral programmes and covers project management and physics as well.
- In Finland, Tampere University of Applied Sciences teaches much the same core subjects, industrial design, civil engineering and automation, and it also offers mba programmes and covers ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering as well.
- Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, in India, takes a similar route through industrial design, life sciences and AI and machine learning; it is public, whereas this institution is private, and also offers doctoral programmes.
- Looking internationally, University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom is where chemistry, life sciences and AI and machine learning get a comparable treatment; it is far larger, with about 24,500 students against roughly 7,500 here, and is public, whereas this school is private.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.
- Agriculture, Engineering, Information Technology (IT), Project Management, Sustainable Development
*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
