Welcome to the University of Antwerp

Your faculty or the department will give you a warm welcome and will guide you during your first days.

An HR officer from the Human Resources Department will be assigned to follow up your personal file. Your HR officer will contact you to sign your contract and inform you how to receive your employee card. Furthermore he or she will provide you with practical information related to working at the University of Antwerp.

In addition, you will be assigned a payroll officer who can help you directly with questions about your salary, holiday payment, year-end bonus, eco vouchers and so on.
