Current affairs

Every month, Emeritus Professor of University History Leen Dorsman describes something you must know about Utrecht University’s long history. This time: the University Library. In the hundreds of years of its existence, academics and students have only been using it for a little while.

The Royal Dutch Society for Veterinary Medicine (KNMvD), the Royal Dutch Kennel Club "Cynophilia" and the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University are joining forces to improve the welfare and health of dogs and encourage responsible breeding. 

Betweter Festival will be back on 29 September! Together with scientists and artists, we will enlarge your world in times of narrowing eyes. We ask the questions that matter, feel the zeitgeist, and dream about the world of tomorrow. How much inequality can our society tolerate? Is the fear of artificial intelligence justified? And how resilient is nature?

From 29 September to 8 October, the third edition of Utrecht Science Week will take place. One week long, one big Open House for everyone interested in the latest in (applied) science in the field of sustainability and health. Meeting and exchanging knowledge between students, professionals and all other interested parties: everyone is welcome to join.
