All postgraduate management programs and management master programs from the University of Antwerp were transferred to Antwerp Management School.[5]

Location
Campus
The Antwerp Management School is located in the historical center of the city of Antwerp. In the year 2000, after an award-winning renovation, a splendid 15th-century mansion called ‘Het Brantijser’ became the new home of the Management School. The architect and principal have been awarded with the prestigious Europa Nostra Award for the daring combination of the historical foundations and the surprisingly modern interpretation. Other university campuses are within walking distance. The school is can easily be reached by public transportation.
Antwerp
Combining the charm and tradition of a rich history with the vigour and progress of modern industrial Flanders, Antwerp is a city with a distinctive character. In the 16th century, Antwerp became the main commercial centre of Western Europe. Churches, museums and historical buildings bear witness to this golden age.
The city remains one of Europe’s major business centres:
- Antwerp's diamond center is the largest in the world
- The petrochemical industry in Antwerp is the second largest in the world (after Houston, Texas, US)
- Antwerp is one of the world's ten "fashion capitals"
- The port of Antwerp is the second largest in Europe (after Rotterdam, The Netherlands)
