Get to know your classmates, other summer students, and the city of Utrecht by taking part in this year's social programme! Join our pub quiz, scavenger hunt, night canoeing, or one of the other activities during your stay in Utrecht.
You can register for the following events from February 2025 onwards:
Visit the Utrecht University Botanic Gardens
During the Summer School, you are welcome to visit the Utrecht University Botanic Gardens at the Utrecht Science Park for free! Just show your Letter of Acceptance, visible in your account on our website. You do not have to register. On and around Fort Hoofddijk, different gardens and other attractions can be found, each with its own distinctive character. They play an important role in supporting education and research.
