Finding your way around campus

The Faculty of Science and Engineering is located in two main areas in Groningen. Most facilities are located at the Zernike campus, with several of the more medical programmes located downtown at the Antonius Deusinglaan (ADL) near to the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG).

Each building and room or lecture hall within it has a dedicated indicative number. The first four digits of a location indicate the building number; the first two digits after the period indicate the floor number and the last two digits indicate the room number. Some buildings contain multiple building numbers. Take LB 5173.0217 as an example. LB indicates the general building: Linnaeusborg, which consists of multiple building numbers; ‘5173’ indicates which specific part of the Linnaeusborg you need to be in. Room 0217 is on the second floor, in room 17.

The courses you will take are taught at the Antonius Deusinglaan (ADL) location. Below you can find two pictures to help you find it during your introduction day. Underneath that is a campus tour of the ADL location.

On the introduction day, Pharmaciae Sacrum will also take you on a guided tour of the building and show you the important classrooms. But during the first few weeks, we can recommend being there extra early to find your way to the right lecture or tutorial room, because some of them can be difficult to find.
