    Location at University of Groningen

    Netherlands has a few good and world-renowned universities that specialize in particular aspects. RUG makes it as one of them. Specifically, living in Groningen is less extreme than other experiences like Amsterdam, Rotterdam and the Hague, especially because it is largely a college town. Bicycles are preferred as the most common mode of transport. The public transport system is very good, however, you may have to bear with the overcrowded bus lines on the way to university. Places to see around are De Oosterpoort, Stadsschouwburg, Groninger Museum, Martini-plaza, etc. The town is pretty clean and a good news is that there is minimal pollution. One drawback of the place may be that it is quite far away from the bigger cities of Netherlands. The city has an airport which runs a lot of cheap and pocket-friendly flights if you like traveling.


    Infrastructure at University of Groningen

    The University of Groningen is one of the top-ranked in the greenest of the universities worldwide. The Zernike Library here provides space for students to study with a great collection of books to read and also photocopying facilities. The buildings of RUG are located all across the small town. The main building is called Academic Building, which is near the City center. Sciences and Economics department are located at the Zernike Campus, a large campus which has two gymming facilities, sports facilities, supermarkets and 10 university buildings in bright colors. Their University Sports Center (ACLO) is the biggest in Netherlands. The University Library includes the UL City Centre and three special libraries serving as an information center for the entire academic community, including both students, and professors.


    Residing Options at University of Groningen

    The university does not have a living facility of its own. However, it does reserve about 1550 rooms for international students in facilities that an outside organization called SSH manages. So you won’t be homeless the moment you enter but it is recommended to communicate beforehand. Rent for living off-campus is rather cheap and you save money on the transportation cost too. Rent per month may be about € 350 –  €500. The rent includes all utilities (room, heating, electricity, furniture, internet, etc. No place is more than 10 minutes away by bicycle.

    Location at University of Groningen

    Netherlands has a few good and world-renowned universities that specialize in particular aspects. RUG makes it as one of them. Specifically, living in Groningen is less extreme than other experiences like Amsterdam, Rotterdam and the Hague, especially because it is largely a college town. Bicycles are preferred as the most common mode of transport. The public transport system is very good, however, you may have to bear with the overcrowded bus lines on the way to university. Places to see around are De Oosterpoort, Stadsschouwburg, Groninger Museum, Martini-plaza, etc. The town is pretty clean and a good news is that there is minimal pollution. One drawback of the place may be that it is quite far away from the bigger cities of Netherlands. The city has an airport which runs a lot of cheap and pocket-friendly flights if you like traveling.


    Infrastructure at University of Groningen

    The University of Groningen is one of the top-ranked in the greenest of the universities worldwide. The Zernike Library here provides space for students to study with a great collection of books to read and also photocopying facilities. The buildings of RUG are located all across the small town. The main building is called Academic Building, which is near the City center. Sciences and Economics department are located at the Zernike Campus, a large campus which has two gymming facilities, sports facilities, supermarkets and 10 university buildings in bright colors. Their University Sports Center (ACLO) is the biggest in Netherlands. The University Library includes the UL City Centre and three special libraries serving as an information center for the entire academic community, including both students, and professors.


    Residing Options at University of Groningen

    The university does not have a living facility of its own. However, it does reserve about 1550 rooms for international students in facilities that an outside organization called SSH manages. So you won’t be homeless the moment you enter but it is recommended to communicate beforehand. Rent for living off-campus is rather cheap and you save money on the transportation cost too. Rent per month may be about € 350 –  €500. The rent includes all utilities (room, heating, electricity, furniture, internet, etc. No place is more than 10 minutes away by bicycle. Students suggest that Lefier, Duisenberg, and Linneausborg are buildings that are more welcoming and pleasant. One can use Housing Office (HO) for non-EU students and there are Facebook groups too.

  • See where RUG is located



    Location at University of Groningen

    Netherlands has a few good and world-renowned universities that specialize in particular aspects. RUG makes it as one of them. Specifically, living in Groningen is less extreme than other experiences like Amsterdam, Rotterdam and the Hague, especially because it is largely a college town. Bicycles are preferred as the most common mode of transport. The public transport system is very good, however, you may have to bear with the overcrowded bus lines on the way to university. Places to see around are De Oosterpoort, Stadsschouwburg, Groninger Museum, Martini-plaza, etc. The town is pretty clean and a good news is that there is minimal pollution. One drawback of the place may be that it is quite far away from the bigger cities of Netherlands. The city has an airport which runs a lot of cheap and pocket-friendly flights if you like traveling.


    Infrastructure at University of Groningen

    The University of Groningen is one of the top-ranked in the greenest of the universities worldwide. The Zernike Library here provides space for students to study with a great collection of books to read and also photocopying facilities. The buildings of RUG are located all across the small town. The main building is called Academic Building, which is near the City center. Sciences and Economics department are located at the Zernike Campus, a large campus which has two gymming facilities, sports facilities, supermarkets and 10 university buildings in bright colors. Their University Sports Center (ACLO) is the biggest in Netherlands. The University Library includes the UL City Centre and three special libraries serving as an information center for the entire academic community, including both students, and professors.


    Residing Options at University of Groningen

    The university does not have a living facility of its own. However, it does reserve about 1550 rooms for international students in facilities that an outside organization called SSH manages. So you won’t be homeless the moment you enter but it is recommended to communicate beforehand. Rent for living off-campus is rather cheap and you save money on the transportation cost too. Rent per month may be about € 350 –  €500. The rent includes all utilities (room, heating, electricity, furniture, internet, etc. No place is more than 10 minutes away by bicycle. Students suggest that Lefier, Duisenberg, and Linneausborg are buildings that are more welcoming and pleasant. One can use Housing Office (HO) for non-EU students and there are Facebook groups too.


    Weather at University of Groningen

    Netherlands has typically a moderate climate- never enough snow, never too much heat. A lot of people describe it as having perpetual Autumn. Most of the times, it has an overcast, little sun, often drizzly and dark. The weather leaves a few people confused too. Never leave home without a coat, if you forget, it will rain! If you wear the coat, the sun might be out and you'll feel hot. Netherlands has warm summers (with humidity) and cool winters. The freezing days between December-February can go below 0 degree Celsius. Warm days sees average temperature as 20 degree Celsius however it rarely goes above 30 degree Celsius in total. The Dutch are known to complain a lot about their weather.

You might find some professors who'll send you back because you haven't done your study for the work that you are demanding.


    Financial aid at University of Groningen

    Tuition fee here is higher for non-European union and international students. Dutch universities rarely give financial aid to their students.

    Jobs and placements at University of Groningen

    Although median salaries are varied for different departments here, a typical Business development person will fetch about €27,360, a management consultant will get €36000 while one of the highest seemed to be a Marketing Director fetching € 91000. students considered the following places for jobs: Noord-Holland (43 percent), Groningen (40 percent) and Utrecht (39 percent) were selected most often.
