The faculty's already rich offering was recently completed with translation and interpretation, in partnership with the Haute Ecole de la Ville de Liège and the University of Mons. The faculty provides its students with an incredible variety of points of view on yesterday's world as well as today's.

Historical and philosophical approaches naturally play a major role in the courses the faculty offers, thus preparing students to employ critical questioning. This training is based on the rigour of methods and theories, encouraging students to think, relativise, situate, understand and define problems. Finally, this training pays particular attention to languages, in all their forms: in Philosophy and Letters, undoubtedly more than in any other area, we know that words are essential and that their meaning goes far beyond the written word. This ability to decode is also an incomparable instrument of global intelligence and freedom.
