Nos missions


ULiège's mission is to pass on scientific knowledge. As our societies make the transition to greater sustainability, we are committed to informing tomorrow's citizens about the issues at stake in these profound transformations, and to equipping [future] professionals with the skills they need to tackle, individually and collectively, the social and environmental challenges they face.

With this in mind, ULiège enables all members of its community (students and staff) to experience sustainability and social and environmental transition as part of their curriculum and/or career path. In this way, ULiège is betting that sustainability education strengthens the capacity for action in favor of social and environmental transition. 

Raising students' awareness of Transition and Sustainability

Sustainability and transition are integrated into ULiège's curricula at various levels:

The University also strongly encourages Master's and PhD students to seize the opportunity to showcase their end-of-study work for a more sustainable world, by taking part in the Hera Awards.

Supporting teaching staff in transforming their courses

ULiège is committed to supporting its teaching staff in the transformation of teaching content and methods, in order to adapt all courses (including continuing education courses) to integrate sustainability and transition issues and meet students' needs and expectations. To this end, it provides teachers with :

  • the European Sustainability and Transition Competency Framework for self-assessment: Green Comp
  • The new IFRES training course "Integrating Education for Sustainable Development and Robustness Pedagogy in Higher Education", part of the catalog offered as part of the compulsory training for assistants during their first term and for new members of the academic body during their probationary period.
