Facultés Universitaires Notre-Dame De La Paix
The University of Namur or Université de Namur, in Namur (Belgium), is a Jesuit, Catholic private university in the French Community of Belgium. Both teaching and research are carried out in six Faculties or university level schools in the fields of:
- Philosophy and Lettres
- Law
- Economic, Social, and Management Sciences
- Information Technologies
- Sciences
- Medicine
On June 29, 2003, the FUNDP joined a network with three other French speaking, Catholic institutions in Belgium, the Facultés universitaires catholiques de Mons, the Facultés universitaires Saint-Louis and the Université catholique de Louvain forming the Académie Louvain. Explorations developed in 2007 for combining all four into one university, the Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain). The plan for fusion was accepted by the three other institutions but on December 17, 2010 the FUNDP General Assembly failed to give the 80% needed for ratification.
