Study Spot, Housing & Information Point Study at UU
Our students give the best advice.
University Library City Centre
The white furnishings and natural light make this a perfect place to concentrate.- By Lobke + 7
- Benjamin: “The city centre library is a striking blend of old and new, where modern and classical architecture come together seamlessly. Its halls and rooms hold stories of the past, as we learned in one of our first lectures: the building once served as a residence for one of Napoleon's puppet kings during the French rule in the Netherlands. This history makes the library particularly special, especially for students of the humanities.”
- Thomas : “Even though I am not part of the humanities, I like to study in in the city center. It is specially beautiful and also located just in the heart of the city, so in between studying one can easily go to cafés or just walk around the city.”
- Lobke: “I've had quite a few meetings, study sessions, and all-nighters here. I find the University Library to be a great place to truly focus. Additionally, it's such a beautiful building!”
University Library Science Park
The University Library is no longer only a building full of books, but also a centre where people meet and exchange knowledge.- By Camila + 5
- Studentlife Team: “Don’t forget to book your seat during the exam period! Science Park library is students’ favorite place to study so make sure to save your spot.”
- Hau : “This library is my favorite place to study. It's wonderfully quiet here, and I always enjoy my study session in an individual booth.”
- Camila : “Given that most of my classes are in Science Park, it’s really convenient to have a place to study (with available seats all the time). ”

Koningsberger building
A wonderful place to study - alone or together.- By Hau + 4
- Miguel : “It's a diverse university building with various study spaces. Perfect for group study – not as quiet as a library but still calm and enjoyable.”
- Daphne : “The KBG is connected to both the BBG and the Minnaert building, where many classes take place. There's also a SPAR for small purchases.”
- Hau : “A beautiful modern building where you can find study booths which are perfect for group work.”
