Student review [#20485]
for Chemical and Process Engineering
at KU Leuven
Leuven, Belgium
First, let me start by stating the competencies. The professors are top class. Extremely professional and their knowledge exceeds normal standards. Fascinating curriculums and well established descriptions. Classes are a bit long but that is fine because the program is suited for working professionals as well (longer sessions but fewer days per week).
The direction is really understanding and the chairperson and staff is very friendly and responsive. Classes can be sometimes redundant on the other hand but that is because the material is highly interconnected.
As for the negatives, the environments is highly competitive and challenging. It can be a bit intimidating for international students as professors sometimes discuss matters in the dutch language with dutch students.
Material is somewhat difficult as the university is highly ranked so they have to meet the standards.
