"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." - Nelson Mandela Studying Germanic languages and literature offers you much more than mastering communication in Dutch, English or German. It also offers you a "journey" through the linguistic, literary, cultural, socio-political and media landscapes of Dutch-, English- or German-speaking countries, and enables you to acquire intercultural skills in high demand on the Belgian and international job markets.

Biology is the science of living things.From the cell to the ecosystem, it studies all forms of life. It is essential for understanding complex societal issues affecting the environment, health and sustainable development.

From the heritage of a civilization to the foundation of our cultureThe bachelor's degree in ancient and modern languages and literature stands at the crossroads of two complementary fields - Latin and French - and studies them from a linguistic and literary perspective.The program gives you access, in the original language, to the founding texts of our culture, from Antiquity to the Renaissance, in Latin, and from the Middle Ages to the Contemporary Era, in French.

Since the discovery of fire during prehistoric times human beings have never ceased to be interested in matter, its properties and its natural or self-induced changes.Named "chemists" today, specialists in the reactivity of matter pursue the art of experimentation and discovery. The products of their essential knowledge are applied in the fields of nutrition, health, hygiene, transport, sport, construction and environmental protection.

Awakening curiosity about the Earth and the natural world: a key to meeting tomorrow's challenges.

Developed since the dawn of time, mathematics shapes our daily lives and develops tools for the future.At the heart of the hard sciences, such as physics, chemistry and biology, mathematics plays a key role in a large number of applied problems, whether in computer science and telecommunications, through discrete mathematics and algorithmics, in meteorology and the space field, through the theory of dynamic systems, or in finance and actuarial science, through probability and stochastic processes.

Veterinary medicine is a discipline at the crossroads of medicine, biology, agronomy and pharmacy. It focuses on the collective and individual health of livestock and companion animals, and its implications for the environment, human health and society.At the forefront of managing public health problems and monitoring contagious diseases, veterinarians also spearhead human and animal biomedical research. In this sense, veterinary medicine is an indispensable link in global health.

Understanding and combating abnormal protein secretion and combating the envelope of pathogenic bacteria: these are the two focuses of two new UNamur projects selected as part of the 7th FRFS-Welbio call for projects. Among the 22 applications selected, Alison Forrester, a qualified FNRS researcher, has been awarded a Starting Grant and Xavier De Bolle, Professor, has been awarded an Advanced Grant. They are both WEL Research Institute Investigators and members of the Namur Research Institute for Life Sciences (NARILIS).
