3) Candidates with a foreign higher education degree may be admitted within the limits stipulated in the Decrees (Decree of the French-speaking Community of 31 March 2004 on the definition of higher education and its integration in the European system of higher education and the refinancing of universities ; corresponding Decrees of the Dutch-speaking Community), following evaluation and approval by the Teaching Committee and respecting the regulations and procedures of the universities participating in the program.
 
4) Holders of the new degrees (Master ingénieur civil and Master in ingenieurswetenschappen) awarded according to the above-mentioned decrees will have the same rights as soon as these degrees have been awarded by Belgian universities.

Students may enrol in the participating university of their choice. Students’ candidacies will first be submitted to the Teaching Committee of the BNEN which will then make a recommendation in function of the criteria set out above.

A significant number of the students (about half) are young engineers professionally involved in the Belgian nuclear sector. The complementary degree will give them access to positions of responsibility.

The advanced electives are in part intended as continuing training and are open to foreign participants.

To make it easier for adults to take these courses, they are given as modules. Each course runs from several days to two or three weeks according to its size (number of credits). The timetable is meticulously arranged in advance to enable students engaged in professional life to manage their time between courses and work in consultation with their employer. In addition, these students may spread their program over two years.
