University of Liège

The University of Liège (Université de Liège or ULiège), is a major public university of the French Community of Belgium based in Liège, Wallonia.  Founded in 1817, the University of Liège gathers more than 25.000 students, 3.500 teachers and researchers, and proposes one of the most diversified educational offer in the French speaking part of Belgium (40 bachelors degrees, 207 masters degrees, PhDs, numerous in-house training courses).

The University of Liège collaborates with more than 1.000 institutions world-wide and is integrated in vast international academic and scientific networks. ULiège is granted by the European Commission HR Research Strategy label (HRS4R – quality of human resources management for foreign doctoral and post-doc researchers at ULiège). Numerous ULiège training courses have international quality certifications and accreditations (EUR-ACE, ISO 9001, Conférence des Grandes Ecoles, etc.)

The University of Liège is a world leader in Open Access scientific publications. Its research centres such as GIGA (biotechnologies, genomics), CSL (space), CIP (protein engineering), CRC (cyclotron, radiopharmaceuticals, neurosciences), FARAH (veterinary medicine) or TERRA (agro-bio technologies, food) enjoy a solid international reputation. It is also a major economic player, representing 5.500 direct jobs (and more than 10.000 with the University Hospital Center – CHU de Liège).

Anne mertens

assistant professor, aerospace and mechancial engineering dept.

My current research interests deal with the study of fundamental mechanisms underlying the production of metals by innovative processing routes such as friction stir processing and additive manufacturing, with a strong focus on light alloys (Mg, Al, Ti) and their composites. I am also responsible for the day-to-day running of the laboratory for the characterisation of high temperature thermophysical properties of materials, Metallic Materials Science Unit (University of Liège).
