Antwerp Summer & Winter University (ASWU) is celebrating its fifteenth anniversary. We talked to initiator and Head of International Relations Sara Bervoets and with two driving forces from the very beginning, Professor Annick Schramme (Responsible Fashion Management) and Professor Pierre Van Damme (Vaccinology), about the significance of ASWU for the participants and for our university.
UAntwerp has launched the symbolic video game Corona Combat to mark the start of the second semester. Students, staff and sympathisers can bring out their inner Herman Goossens, Pierre Van Damme or Erika Vlieghe and do battle with virus particles. Professors Van Damme and Vlieghe had the honour of being the first to test the game.
