Eureka-week

Eurekaweek 2021

The Eurekaweek takes place this year from the 16th till the 19th of August.

We are happy to notice that you are interested in registering for the Eurekaweek. We can imagine that you are curious to find out how the program is going to look like. We are working with different scenarios, so it depends on the restrictions in august what the final program is going to look like. Here is a small overview of the different elements that we will include in our program.

The Eurekaweek consists of three key elements:

  1. Getting to know the Erasmus University Rotterdam.
  2. Getting to know the city of Rotterdam.
  3. Getting to know the student life and meeting new people.

These elements are incorporated in the various activities throughout the week. Right now, there is some uncertainty about what the program is going to look like. However, there are general concepts for every scenario that we are working with. These concepts are explained here, and you can expect them to be present no matter what the program is going to look like.
