Biology is the science of life.  From the cell to the ecosystem, it studies all forms of life. It is essential for understanding complex societal issues related to the environment, health, and sustainable development. 

Learn how to address the social and environmental challenges facing our society and develop a scientific approach focused on the future and on solving societal issues!

Fostering curiosity about the Earth and the natural world: a key to meeting the challenges of tomorrow.

The Faculty of Education and Training organizes several certifying programs in partnership with other faculties or higher education establishments.

FaSEF provides theoretical and practical training to prepare for the CAPAES for teachers currently employed at universities, adult education institutions offering higher-level programs, at higher arts schools, or any member of the academic or scientific staff responsible for teaching at a university, even if they do not previously hold a teaching credential.

The discovery of nuclear energy marked a turning point in human history. Today, alongside debates about its role in energy production and its destructive potential, nuclear energy continues to be used in a wide range of fields, such as medical research and cancer therapies. At UNamur, nuclear energy is thus at the heart of the work of biologists, physicists, and art historians.

Geology students at UNamur are encouraged to continue their studies at another university after completing their bachelor’s degree. This transition has been successful, as recently confirmed by two professors from KULeuven who visited the students.

In April 2026, UNamur hosted two events as part of the UNIVERSEH alliance, bringing together more than a hundred students from across Europe.

Since the discovery of fire in prehistoric times, humans have been fascinated by matter, its properties, and the changes that occur naturally or as a result of human intervention. Now known as "chemists," specialists in the reactivity of matter continue to pursue the art of experimentation and discovery. The products of their essential knowledge are applied in the fields of nutrition, health, hygiene, transportation, sports, construction, and environmental protection. 

Developed since the dawn of time, mathematics shapes our daily lives and develops tools for the future. At the heart of hard sciences such as physics, chemistry, and biology, mathematics plays a key role in a large number of applied problems, whether in computer science and telecommunications, through discrete mathematics and algorithms, in meteorology and space science, through the theory of dynamic systems, or in finance and actuarial science, through probability and stochastic processes. 

The University of Namur and STÛV, a Namur-based company specializing in wood and pellet heating solutions, are celebrating ten years of fruitful collaboration. This partnership illustrates the importance of synergies between academia and industry to improve competitiveness and meet environmental challenges.

At the University of Namur, a thesis led by Fabian Delhalle, with support from SPW Research as part of the Win4Doc program, is exploring an innovative approach to producing proteins of therapeutic interest. In collaboration with Bio-Sourcing and the Walloon Center for Agricultural Research, this project aims to better understand the mechanisms of lactation in goats in order to optimize biopharmaceutical production that is more accessible, more flexible, and more environmentally friendly.
