Enrolling for this study plan is only possible based on your academic record.

Overview of the study plan

Welcome @ VUB, Faculty of Physical Education and Physiotherapy. We are happy to help you with information on our courses and possibilities for exchange students.
Aside from our PhD programme, the Faculty of Physical Education and Physiotherapy does not offer English programmes. We do have courses and possibilities for exchange students. These are noted below. You can choose other courses from the Dutch programme, but then you need to prove Dutch knowledge (B2) and get approval from the professor concerned.

Please contact the internationalization coordinator Katrijn D’Herdt (kdherdt@vub.ac.be) for more information.

If you are interested in clinical internships, please note that basic knowledge of French and/or Dutch is necessary to communicate with patients.
