Student Life
Campus life
The campus of the University of Twente was constructed during the 1960s in a park-like area between Enschede and Hengelo. It was an experiment: the Netherlands did not have another example of a campus university yet.
Since it was built more than 50 years ago, a lot has been changed and rebuilt at the University of Twente, although some of the original architectural or urban ideas have remained unaffected by the ravages of time.
Sports facilities
The University of Twente has welcomed and embraced a diversification of sports over the years. As a result, we currently have almost forty different sports clubs for you to get involved with. From wall climbing to survival, from soccer to water polo, there is a variety of different sports to choose from.
