Katholieke Universiteit Leuven Kulak

The Katholieke Universiteit Leuven associatie Kortrijk , or short Kulak is a university satellite campus of the KU Leuven in the city of Kortrijk in the Belgian province of West Flanders and therefore also is officially a Dutch-speaking institution.As the name implies, it is a university campus affiliated with the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven situated on the southern rim of Kortrijk. The idea behind this campus 50 years ago was twofold, but was embedded in the general movement for more democratisation of the higher education. First of all, Leuven always had a strong portion of its students coming from the West Flanders region. Yet, many prospective students were wary of moving to Flemish Brabant for an adventure that would involve an almost complete rupture with their familiar surroundings. . Secondly, the majority of students who quit university do so in their first year. Typically, depending on the studies, the first two years draw two to three times as many students as the last three or four .
