Locations and services

Until June 15 students who do not have facilities for online education or who are better able to study in our buildings can visit the locations Kralingse Zoom and Rochussenstraat.

Opening times for the upcoming 3 weeks:

However, if the traffic to these locations becomes too great, other measures will be taken.

We attach great importance to the health of our employees and students and do everything in our power to create a pleasant and safe environment within the RIVM guidelines. For example, we ask that every student and staff member register upon entry and to de-register upon departure. Dispensers with disinfectant hand gel have been placed on stands in a number of places within the buildings. In addition, we will have stickers with instructions and directions for the maximum number of people per room and to indicate mandatory walking routes.

Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences has drawn up its own protocol for education and the 1m50 society. We hereby urge everyone to read this protocol carefully before visiting a location.

Do you have health complaints? Stay at home. Students can study independently in open learning centres if they do not have the means for education online at home.

Now that online assessments are being realised, students are in need of quiet study spaces in the available locations of Kralingse Zoom and Rochussenstraat. Students from all institutes can come here if they have no or insufficient facilities at home to be able to study well or in case of other reasons they cannot fully concentrate on their studies and work at home. At the two locations, in addition to the open learning centres, a number of classrooms will be opened where students can work in peace and quiet. Students can clearly indicate on entry that they need such a place to study, so that they can be allocated a space.

Everyone should strictly adhere to the applicable government instructions regarding the distance to keep from another and to stay at home in case of the slightest health complaint. Also follow the instructions of the RUAS employees when they are allocating spaces to work and learn, as well as the instructions they give in the performance of their supervisory duties. Where the facilities at home are adequate, it is advisable to make use of them. Incidentally, it may be the case that the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences decides to limit access in case of too much traffic

 Material from the library is available online. Information specialists will actively help students and lecturers to find online teaching and study materials. They will provide support by e-mail or telephone in the event of a guidance question and, if necessary, an appointment will be made at the Museumpark location. More information is available on our library page. This measure is in line with the provisions regarding the Counsellor's Office and IT support, where questions can be asked via e-mail and, if necessary, a person to person appointment can be made. Try to communicate with each other via e-mail or WhatsApp as much as possible instead of meeting in person. All forms of education that involve physical contact, such as group assignments for which you need to get together, such as street interviews and surveys, cannot take place.

A limited restart at locations, also means travelling to the locations. In order to reduce the burden on public transport as much as possible, we advise to use a bicycle as much as possible. If you travel by public transport, please observe the applicable measures.

The limited parking facilities will not be made available to staff or students in advance. In exceptional cases, for example for medical reasons, we will consider whether space can be made available
