The Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) was founded in 1834 under the principle of the libre examen and is regularly cited among the top 150 universities in world ranking. It has won 6 scientific Nobel prizes (the most recent in 2018) and is composed of 12 faculties, 40 undergraduate programmes, 250 graduate programmes, and about 35,000 students.

In 1921, the ULB established itself in Solbosch when the city of Brussels offered the university a site. From the 1950s, the campus was greatly expanded due to the increasing number of students. Since 2002, FOSDEM has been held on the Solbosch Campus.
