Erasmus Universiteit Faculteit der Geneeskunde

Erasmus MC is a "Science Park" where healthcare, research, and education are linked in both physical and mental ways.

• The Education Center is a huge, award-winning central hub with more than 400 study spots. It was made to help students work together and interact with each other.

• Medical Library: One of the largest medical libraries in Europe, it gives you easy access to both digital databases and physical archives.
• Integrated Hospital Campus: The medical school is physically connected to the main hospital, so students can quickly move from lecture halls to clinical wards.
• Modern Research Laboratories: The Erasmus MC Graduate School is located here and has high-tech labs for genomics, proteomics, and molecular medicine.
• Active Learning Classrooms: These are set up for small-group tutoring instead of big lectures, which fits with the "thinkers who act" philosophy.
• The Education Gallery is a special place for medical and anatomy exhibitions that bring together art and science.
• Digital Learning Environment: Uses cutting-edge platforms like Canvas to create a fully integrated, paperless learning experience.
• Roof Gardens and Public Spaces: The campus is designed with a "Healing Environment" philosophy, which means there are green spaces that are good for both patients and students.
