Campus Fryslân

Students on a bench in front of the campus

Faculty Campus Fryslân is the University of Groningen's regional hub in Leeuwarden, dedicated to understanding and guiding societal transitions. We bring together education, research, and engagement around the major transitions shaping our world: from climate crisis and circular economy to digitalisation, wellbeing, security, and governance.

Through an integrated, interdisciplinary approach, we connect students, researchers, and partners across sectors and borders. Deeply rooted in Fryslân, we link local insights to global challenges, turning knowledge into action and innovation into impact!

Introducing the Campus Fryslân Student Mentor Programme

^{Starting university is exciting, but it can also be confusing, overwhelming, and full of questions. How do you organise your time when nobody is checking whether you have done your readings? What do lecturers actually expect from an academic assignment?...}
