Location Description

Antwerp, chosen in 1993 as the "Cultural Capital of Europe," is a city with a distinctive character, one which combines the charm and tradition of a rich history with the vigor and progress of a modern industrial center. According to the American Association of Port Authorities, the port of Antwerp is the second largest only to Rotterdam in Europe and Antwerp World Diamond Center plays an important role in setting standards, regulating professional ethics, training and promoting the interests of Antwerp as a center of the diamond industry. Hence, Antwerp is the perfect place to study international business.
