City of the future
The Urban Gro Lab aims to read and renew the city of Groningen. Researchers and students are working closely with the municipality to address everyday planning problems. Hopefully this will help Groningen become an international source of knowledge and inspiration for the liveable city of the future. Environmental and Infrastructure Planning students have already analyzed the public space of the Ebbingekwartier.
The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
