Our Core Mission

Professional education designed for labour market success

Connecting talent and opportunity across Belgium and Europe.

Brussels College's primary mission is to provide high-quality, professional education designed to support labour market integration. We equip every student with the practical competencies, sector-relevant knowledge and professional maturity needed to secure meaningful employment, in Belgium and across the wider European Union.

We believe that access to an internationally recognized qualification, delivered in the heart of Europe, should be the gateway to a fulfilling career, not a privilege reserved for a few. Every program is designed around employer expectations, the applicable regulatory frameworks and the evolving demands of the Belgian and EU labour market.

How the Two Fit Together

Two institutions, one coherent path

Brussels College operates Northwood University - Brussels, an authorized International Program Center of Northwood University (Midland, Michigan, USA). The two are distinct: Brussels College is the Belgian institution; Northwood University - Brussels is the U.S. degree program delivered on our campus.

U.S. Accreditation

Northwood University - Brussels

An HLC-accredited U.S. Bachelor's or MBA, awarded by Northwood University and taught full-time on our campus.

Our Enduring Home Institution

Brussels College

A Belgian institution in its own right, operating under Belgian law as a Private Higher Education Institution in the Flemish Region — the standard legal basis for private higher-education providers, not a quality accreditation. Brussels College also holds long-term goals to pursue NVAO accreditation and to introduce EQF-aligned BKT qualifications in the future.

Our Vision
