About the university
The Institute for Tropical Medicine (ITM) was established over a century ago. We began by training doctors and nurses to work in the Congo and are now internationally recognised in the fields of education, medicine, science and world health. In 1906, in an old villa in Brussels, King Leopold II established a school devoted to the study of tropical diseases (the School voor Tropenziekten). He wanted to train doctors and nurses to allow them to work in the Congo Free State. There were similar tropical institutions in England, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Portugal. In 1933, the school joined forces with the Kliniek Leopold II voor Tropenziekten and moved, under the influence of the future Leopold III, to a characteristic Art Deco building in Antwerp, just a short distance from the harbour docks serving the Congo. The Prins Leopold Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde, known in English as the Institute for Tropical Medicine, was born. For several years, the ITM continued to be an educational institution for people going to the tropics and a hospital for people who returned from there needing treatment. The majority of the professors were people who had lived in the colonies.
