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 Smaranda + 7
- Manu : “Though it’s always busy, the study spots are great. The café downstairs is nice, and I like to take study breaks in the courtyard when the sun is out.”
- 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.”
- Smaranda : “Despite always being full of students, this library is the only place I can be productive in peace and quiet. Book a seat in advance!”
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 Laura + 5
- 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.”
- 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.”
- Laura : “During the exam period, I always spend the entire days in the library; it's the ideal environment for studying with focus.”
Koningsberger building
A wonderful place to study - alone or together.- By Miguel + 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.”
- 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.”
