Gilles Perrouin has just received the award for the most influential paper at the SPLC2024 conference. This award highlights a successful line of research on software product line testing, already awarded in February 2024.

On the occasion of the 30th edition of the Festival International Nature de Namur (FINN), the University of Namur, partner of this event, reaffirms its commitment to environmental awareness by combining science and art. With its immersive stand in the nature village set up at the citadel, and the participation of its experts in the Focus Environnement ecological debates, the University of Namur offers an innovative look at nature through teaching. In addition, a jury of students from the Master in Cinematographic Cultures and Thought awarded the Prix de l'Environnement at the Professional Film Gala.

As part of a research project on the medieval heritage preserved at the Moretus Plantin University Library (BUMP), the archive entrusted to it by the de Brouchoven de Bergeyck family has been meticulously studied by historian Romain Waroquier. This collection is of undeniable historical and scientific interest: hitherto unknown to researchers, it contains extremely rare documents.

How to cope with the Y2K bug? How to ensure the transition to a single currency in Europe, the euro? It's the late 1990s, and the need for IT manpower is greater than ever to meet the growing needs of the IT industry. It was against this backdrop that UNamur and its Faculty of Computer Science boldly and proactively developed a new course of study: a staggered timetable leading to a Master's degree in Computer Science. Twenty-five years later, interest in this training and its societal necessity are more relevant than ever.

After studying philosophy at UNamur and a few years as a teacher, Jérôme Bouvy became the first hospital philosopher at the Grand Hôpital de Charleroi. His missions: to bring philosophy as a living practice to the heart of his institution's day-to-day operations, and to support workers in their quest for meaning in their work.

Granular on the outside, medium-sized with a texture that is both tender and firm, subtle smoking, aromas that linger on the palate and... historical roots in its terroir: these are the assets that have enabled Saucisson gaumais to earn the European PGI label.

As it does every year, the Faculty of Computer Science is organizing a job fair dedicated to digital professions. It's the UNamur IT Jobs Fair 2025, on Thursday 13/11 at the Arsenal.

From 2020 to 2025, as part of her doctoral thesis in history, researcher Julie Duchêne conducted a ground-breaking investigation blending history and biology to trace the cohabitation between humans and wolves in Wallonia and Luxembourg, from the 18th to the early 20th century. Thanks to an innovative interdisciplinary approach, including DNA analysis of naturalized 19th-century specimens, her work sheds light on the mechanisms that led to the local extinction of the species. This research was made possible thanks to the support of numerous scientific and cultural partners.

In May 2025, the Department of Physics welcomed two special visitors: Serge Mathot and François Briard from Namur, both alumni of UNamur and members of CERN. Several activities were on the program, ranging from a visit to the particle accelerator, to science popularization and thematic seminars, particularly in heritage sciences. The aim? To identify areas or activities in which UNamur and CERN could strengthen their collaboration.
