Science Faculty Morning

As part of the biannual OWL (Orientation Week Leiden), the Science International Office hosts the Faculty Morning for students coming to the Faculty of Science. Just before the start of the semester, we provide information on the Faculty, the University, and life in the Netherlands, as well as a chance to see the Faculty and meet fellow students. We would love to see you there! Should you wish to attend only the Science Faculty Morning, but not the entire OWL, please contact us directly via e-mail.

Leiden Science Buddy Program

The Faculty of Science has its own Buddy Program. A Science Buddy is a current student of the Faculty of Science who is easily approachable, and can share their experience and knowledge with our new international students. You will receive an invitation to join the program by e-mail!
