About Urban Sustainability Studies, BA - at University of Antwerp
In a world shaped by rapid urbanisation, both cities and rural areas are vital for a sustainable future. The Bachelor in Urban Sustainability Studies, designed by the Young Universities for the Future of Europe (YUFE) Alliance, offers an innovative, interdisciplinary education to tackle real-life challenges head-on. Customise your learning path, explore diverse landscapes, and lead the way in urban sustainability across Europe with YUFE! (www.yufe.eu)
Over three dynamic years, you’ll shape your learning journey to match your strengths and interests. The first year covers essential skills at your starting university. In the second and third years, you’ll personalise your studies through YUFE Minors and study at a minimum of three different universities across Europe. The programme culminates in a dissertation to showcase your expertise.
Throughout your bachelor’s programme, you’ll work internationally with students, teachers, and businesses to address real-world issues in a creative, international and interactive setting.
With input from 10 European universities, each a YUFE partner, the programme offers a diverse curriculum that explores sustainability issues in urban and rural settings!
In your first year with YUFE, you’ll begin your bachelor’s studies at the University of Antwerp (or another chosen university) to build a common foundation in urban sustainability through a mix of on-site and online courses.
As you continue your studies, you have the freedom to personalise your curriculum by choosing from 20 different minors. With this flexibility, you can select three minors, with at least two of them to be taken at other partner universities. This allows you to travel and study at a minimum of three universities, creating a unique and diverse learning experience. The travel is made possible with Erasmus Funding, which provides financial support to help cover the costs of studying abroad, ensuring accessibility to this international academic opportunity.
You’ll round off your academic profile with a bachelor’s thesis project and your choice of elective courses at your starting university.
