Campus Kantienberg
Our largest campus, Campus Kantienberg, is in the middle of the student district, full of trendy catering establishments and large parks. With a modern media library, several relaxation areas and its own student restaurant, 'De Kantiene', this campus is completely tailored to our students.
About Campus Kantienberg
Campus Kantienberg is located in the heart of Ghent: close to Citadel Park, Sint-Pietersplein and the Overpoort student district. So there are plenty of coffee bars or sandwich shops where students can relax between classes.
Opposite our campus is the Kinepolis, the setting for the annual Ghent Film Festival. For even more culture, students can visit the Vooruit, the S.M.A.K. or the Museum of Fine Arts, all within walking distance of Voetweg.
