Antwerp Rail School 2021

We wish you an inspiring, innovative and illuminating 2021! Let’s stay (rail)connected in this European year of rail!

22 - 26 March 2021 - University of Antwerp

TransportNET is proud to host the 7th edition of the Antwerp Rail School, in co-operation with technical consultancy and engineering firm Ricardo Rail and the Belgian passenger rail operator SNCB.

The Antwerp Rail School brings together scientific knowledge and rail practice.

At the same time, it is an excellent opportunity to promote the rail industry to PhD-students and postdocs, acquainting them with a working environment which carries a long history and offers substantial growth possibilities.

Speakers from the TransportNET universities will contribute through conceptual, framework and process inputs, whilst well-known rail (supporting) organisations will give practical, in-depth insights into their strategic decision-making.

The overall programme will cover 5 days. Participants can either join the entire week or opt for one or more days.
