Services
Student services
At Erasmus University College we recognize that the transition to university can sometimes prove challenging on a personal level. It is for this reason that we have an elaborate support network in place, consisting of student counsellors, a student life officer and binding study advice in your first year, so that you will be able to tackle any possible issues, and receive appropriate support when you need it.
Housing services
Erasmus University College (EUC) requires its students to live in the LUCIA residence in the city centre during their first year of studies. Living together with your fellow students provides an excellent opportunity to get to know each other well and to build solid friendships. Considering studying at EUC requires a lot of group-work, living together also makes it easier to plan these group meetings and generally enhances the overall academic community, which is essential to our philosophy of what makes a great university college. Additionally, living on campus has the benefit of allowing you to immediately focus on your studies considering your housing is already arranged for you.
Library services
The creation and dissemination of knowledge are at the heart of the University’s activities. The University Library helps researchers and students to excel in these pursuits and to share their results with society. This ensures that EUR’s expertise in the fields of Welfare, Health, Governance and Culture is available to all.
Medical services
Depending on your income you might be eligible for a compensation to help you cover the costs of your Dutch public health insurance. This compensation is called ‘Zorgtoeslag’ in Dutch (healthcare allowance or benefit).
Student Life
Campus life
In the city centre of Rotterdam, nestled between the market area, the charming Pannekoekstraat, the dazzlingly beautiful Markthal and the bustling shopping area the Meent, sits a dignified city monument on the Nieuwemarkt square, housing Erasmus University College.
The immediate surroundings of Erasmus University College are brimming with a vibrant mix of both the hip and happening, as well as the more traditional little pop and mom venues. Together, these create a nice buzz in the area, with plenty to choose from quirky shops to interesting but affordable restaurants and cafés.
Sports facilities
The Erasmus Sports Centre, located on campus, offers over 50 sports, available on all levels. The Centre organizes sport events, tournaments, and internal competitions, personal training and body fit courses run by certified trainers. The Sport Centre is open 7 days per week.
Student clubs
As a student at Erasmus University College you will become a member of the Erasmus University College Student Association (EUCSA). This all-inclusive student association acts as an umbrella organization for a wide range of student run committees, which together offer a great variety of activities and events for their members.
Besides partaking in all that is on offer, you will also have the opportunity to join or start a committee yourself. A great way of having fun and providing yourself with some well-appreciated experience in organizing and leading. The Student Association is still young, and many new committees will be created in the years to come.
Accreditation
We are very pleased to inform you that the bachelor programme of Erasmus University College has been reaccredited by the Accreditation Organisation of the Netherlands and Flanders (NVAO).
