Chairs

The world is changing very rapidly. New questions are being asked. In order to be able to answer them quickly, through its research as well as in its teaching, UCL has decided to invoke the help and expertise of a few companies by introducing academic Chairs, while continuing to respect the academic independence characteristic of the university.

Chairs created at LSM :

• Brederode’s Chair "Developing entrepreneurial spirit"
• Lhoist Berghmans Chair "Environmental Economics and Management"
• BNP Paribas Fortis Chair in "Actuarial aspects of insurance and finance"
• International Chair
• Chaire KBL-CBC "Change Management"
• Belgacom Chair "Corporate social responsability"
• GDF Suez Chair "Corporate social responsability"
  
  
• Other forms of collaboration are also in place.  For example, corporate research partnerships with LSM-Campus LLN Centres of Excellence significantly contribute to their international development.
