of course since it's in the eu though I'm not sure about university but i myself lived in amsterdam and my dad with a british passport worked there for several years.

Being a European Union citizen he can live, study, and work in Gemany without the need to get permits. He just needs to comply with the law applying to German citizens. http://ec.europa.eu/eures/main.jsp?catId=8105&acro=living&lang=en&parentId=7745&countryId=DE&living= Based on your additional question: He will need to get registered at his place of residence (same as in Belgium), and he will need to obtain a Social Security Card (Sozialversicherungsausweis) and a Tax Identification Number (TIN) before he can start working in Germany..

Yes. Both countries are members of the EU so a Belgian has the absolute right to live, work and study in Germany. He will need to register with local authorities in Germany once he is working - that's German law - but his Belgian passport is all he needs.
