Radboud University Nijmegen

The Radboud University Nijmegen, formerly called University of Nijmegen is the university of the Dutch city of Nijmegen. Currently, more than 17,000 undergraduates and postgraduates attend the university, which is about 8 % of all university students in the Netherlands.

Location

The university buildings are scattered around a leafy campus called Heyendaal, named after and incorporating the eponymous manor. The abundance of building sites characterises the university's desire to modernise its campus. Building projects include new halls of residence, a sports centre (completed in 2003) and several modern science buildings.
