BeMSA UCLouvain

Origin and history

BeMSA UCLouvain was created by motivated students from the UCLouvain in 2015 who liked to join the system and opportunities that the IFSMA and its associations bring. It was the first French speaking university joining BeMSA, thus changing the official language of communication inside the organisation to English.

Our first aim was to offer exchange opportunities to UCLouvain's students during summer. Since then, the team has grown and we now have a whole range of activities and topics to work on!

UCLouvain, BeMSA and IFMSA

Through the election of national board members and seats in the general meeting we are building on the development of BeMSA’s vision and views. These national positions influence internationally through the presence of BeMSA UCLouvain delegates at international IFMSA meetings.
