WURlife in times of Corona
Covid-19 is significantly affecting our daily lives. To stay connected and secure the social, physical and cognitive well-being from our students, we gathered all information for current students on one platform! In the categories below you can find information on how to stay connected with other students remotely, how to stay physically fit, boost your brain with interesting online lectures and discover the hobbies of your fellow students. Next to that, we have a weekly #WURstudentchallenge where you can share your photo and win amazing prices!

Student support in Corona times
Student support can be hard to find. Where to start and who to contact? Especially now in Corona times. How do you live together with others and follow safety measures? Thanks to the help of several organizations, the available support and information out there, is gathered on different posters. You can find those on this page, but also in different student buildings. Have you already seen them?
