Erasmus University College Brussels has more than 4500 students and consists of six departments with about 20 areas of study, some of which offer 3-, 4- and 5-year degree programmes It also boasts a student-oriented approach through intense tutoring. All departments are involved in the restructuring processes of educational innovation. ICT-based teaching and learning, modularisation and problem-based teaching are some of these on-going processes. Erasmus University College Brussels uses the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS), which facilitates both curriculum comparison and student exchanges. The latter will be further improved by the development of modules using English as the language of instruction.
