A Université catholique de Louvain ou UCLouvain é uma universidade belga francófona, com várias sedes em seis cidades belgas, que reúne, desde a adoção do seu novo nome, a UCL e a Université Saint-Louis - Bruxelles.
Na sequência da cisão da Universidade Católica de Lovaina em duas entidades juridicamente independentes (1968), a maior parte da universidade francófona está localizada em Louvain-la-Neuve (Brabante Valão) desde 1972, e em Woluwe-Saint-Lambert para as faculdades de medicina, farmácia, odontologia e ciências biomédicas. A universidade de língua neerlandesa permanece em Lovaina, sob o nome de Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KU Leuven). É uma das principais universidades da Bélgica e é regularmente citada como uma das 150 melhores universidades do mundo.
