ESN Groningen

Erasmus Student Network (ESN) is one of the biggest interdisciplinary student associations in Europe, founded in 1989 for supporting and developing student exchange. We are present in over 500 Higher Education Institutions in 37 countries. The network is constantly developing and expanding. ESN is working in Higher Education and it is offering services to 150.000 students. ESN operates on three levels, Local, National and International.

ESN for intercultural experiences

ESN works for the creation of a more mobile and flexible education environment by supporting and developing the student exchange from different levels, and providing an intercultural experience also to those students who cannot access a period abroad ("internationalization at home")

ESN Groningen is a foundation, which means that we are a non-profit organization. ESN Groningen does not have members, which means that everybody can join our activities.

For who is the Erasmus Student Network?

The main focus of ESN is placed on all current international and exchange students in Groningen. ESN offers help and support in academic, social and practical integration processes. The latter is mainly done through the organization of a wide range of activities, including cultural events (international dinners, country nights, excursions to various places in and outside the Netherlands), social events (Wednesday night social, theme parties), educative programs (language exchange, career events) and charitable events. Check this website to read more about all activities ESN organizes and to see what's coming up.

International buddy system ESN

In addition to that, ESN provides internationals with a buddy system which links international students to a buddy. These buddies can help the international students when they arrive in Groningen and provide support for academic and practical integration.

ESN for future exchange students

Lastly, ESN also provides a platform for future exchange students to gain relevant insight into different cultures and encourages them to gain international experience abroad.
