Join BeMSA Liège
Make a Difference Locally and Globally!
Are you a (bio)medical student at ULiège? Are you passionate about healthcare, public health, or international collaboration?
BeMSA Liège (Belgian Medical Students’ Association) is looking for motivated students to build a strong, local team — and you could be part of it!
Already convinced?
If you look closely you can recognise ULiège students!
What is BeMSA?
BeMSA is the national organisation representing Belgian medical students from every university with a medicine program. We are also a member of the IFMSA (International Federation of Medical Students' Associations) which offers a lot of international opportunities to our students.
Through BeMSA, you can:
- Participate in international research exchanges (for every medical, biomedical or pharmacy student, no matter what year you are in).
- Go on a clinical exchange (only for medical students from 3rd Bachelor and up).
- Contribute to public health/sexual health/medical education/human rights projects (HIV prevention, mental health awareness, sexual education in schools, access to healthcare, ...).
- Attend or organize practical trainings (suturing, patient care, first aid workshops, ...).
- Represent students in national and international congresses.
- Join a global network of future doctors and healthcare leaders.
On this website you can also find more detailed information about the international meetings, exchanges, projects and the BeMSAs in the other universities. So feel free to take a look and see what the possibilities are.
What Are We Doing in Liège?
This year, our focus is on:
- Keeping our exchange program alive and kicking: so our motivated students can study abroad from as early as their first year in university.
- Participating in public health and medical education initiatives in collaboration with other cities.
- Building a dedicated local team to represent ULiège students at the national level.
Are you interested in doing something else within BeMSA? That is totally okay and we would love to hear your initiative!
This is a completely valid question!
However BeMSA is built by students, for students, and we all know how intense (medical) studies can be.
That's why we want to be a low threshold organisation: where you can put your motivation and inspiration to use without compromising your studies. Every project is run by a team, so you are never doing it alone. Depending on the size and the interest in the project, the team can be very big or a more intimate group. The projects are also all very flexible so you only organise with your team what you are able to organise.
You can also choose how you see your role in BeMSA: whether this means helping in one event on a specific aspect or joining the board, everybody is needed and welcome!
Not at all!
BeMSA is open to students in the (bio)medical field at ULiège*, so that means a lot of different courses: medicine, pharmacy, bio-informatics, ...
Everyone can contribute — whether it’s for exchanges, public health, communications, or events.
*And the big plus side of our national organisation: if you transfer university, you'll never have to miss us since we are present in every Belgian university with a medical course!
Yes!
Nobody starts with experience. We provide all the support, guidance, and resources you need. Besides the general members to help you: you also will find a local AND national board willing to help you succeed.
We love fresh perspectives and motivated people. You’ll learn quickly by doing — together.
Definitely not!
Local projects and meetings are mostly in French.
International activities (exchanges, trainings, national meetings) however are in English, but you decide where you want to be involved of course. So English is certainly not needed to participate in BeMSA.
Why Join BeMSA?
- Access to competitive international programs.
- Hands-on experience in project management, teamwork, communication, and coordination.
- National and international networking opportunities.
- A big plus for your CV (Erasmus, master’s applications, internships, jobs).

Who Are We Looking For?
All profiles are welcome! Whether you're into:
- Communication and social media
- Project organisation
- Finance and logistics
- Coordinating student exchanges
- Participating
- Or just helping occasionally
You don’t need experience — only motivation matters.
