Every year, foundations from the Patrimoine de l'Université de Liège award scholarships to young researchers to highlight the quality of their research work. This year, more than €45,000 was awarded to 17 students and researchers from our institution.
P ublic institution created and endowed with legal personality by the law of 5 July 1920, the University's Heritage has received, over the years, donations or legacies from persons wishing to contribute to the development of science and/or the training of students.
