Difficult times require special measures and an adapted way of working, living and organizing life on campus. Over the past few months, since the beginning of the first semester of the new academic year 2020-2021, the College of Europe community as a whole has made huge efforts to cope with a new challenging COVID-19 reality.

All services of the college administration, the academic departments, the hotel services (including catering, residence wardens and housekeeping) and the (visiting) professors and students have shown a great deal of adaptability, dedication and perseverance.

We would like to highlight the joint spirit of standing together and keeping each other safe with a comprehensive overview of 11 things the College of Europe Bruges campus has done to maintain the academic level of excellence and unique student life at the Bruges campus of our Postgraduate Institute of European Studies. We will of course continue to make these precious collective efforts in the second semester as we stand together in the battle against COVID-19.
