Our Local BEST Group
The local BEST group of Louvain-la-neuve was one of the 18 Universities that founded BEST. It has already organized a general assembly and a president's meeting in additions to many courses and local competitions. Also called Contacts Europe Cercle Industriel (CECI), we are also present in the faculty for everything that implies international matters.
