Study in Eindhoven

European Crossroads
The city, in the southern Dutch province of Brabant, has a very central location with regard to other West European cities and is easily accessible by road, rail and air.

Distance to a few other destinations in Western Europe:
88 kilometers to Maastricht, 100 kilometers to Antwerp, 100 kilometers to Düsseldorf, 110 kilometers to Rotterdam, 120 kilometers to Amsterdam, 140 kilometers to Brussels, 380 kilometers to Frankfurt, 450 kilometers to Paris, and 500 kilometers to London.

City of Light
In The Netherlands Eindhoven is often referred to as the “Lichtstad” (City of Light). Originally this nickname referred to the presence of the multinational company Philips, whose humble origin was the production of light bulbs, but these days the name is just as apt, as the city hosts a lively nightlife, a busy cultural agenda, a range of international conferences and fairs, elaborate sport facilities, and the cutting edge of design and technology, not to mention a very stimulating economic environment.

The Green City
Contrary to many other centres of economic and industrial growth, Eindhoven has retained much greenery. Just minutes from the city center one can find some of the most picturesque natural landscapes in The Netherlands, like the Genneper Parks area, or the Kempen and the Peel countryside, which can be explored on foot or by bicycle.
