Koningsberger building
A wonderful place to study - alone or together.- By Daphne + 4
- Studentlife Team: “Being home to three faculties, Koningsbergergebouw offers a lot of study spaces, including rooms for group work.”
- Hau : “A beautiful modern building where you can find study booths which are perfect for group work.”
- 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.”
University Library City Centre
The white furnishings and natural light make this a perfect place to concentrate.- By Dieudonnee + 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.”
- Dieudonnee : “There are a few hidden rooms with nice study spots. For example, there's a room with a beautiful view of the Voorstraat.”
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 Thomas + 5
- Luiza: “I will forever remember all the “all-nighters” that I’ve pulled in the Science Park Library. It’s my go-to during all the exam weeks.”
- 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.”
- Thomas : “I like the space and quietness of the library. I also enjoy walking up and down the shelves. There are always hidden gems to read.”
