We asked some of these students why they chose Eindhoven for their studies and this is what they told us:

Eindhoven and the Netherlands in general, offers a very good quality of life that respects both humans and animals: It has the world’s first solar-powered bike lane, electric cars are trem
endously increasing, the authorities are going to ban the sales of diesel-powered cars and on the highways there are crossings for the wildlife living in the forests, the so called ecoducts.
#2 The City to be
Eindhoven is the technological paradise for all those that are passionate about innovation, science, energy, sustainability and mobility and the students are directly enjoying the benefits of this fact. Taking pride of a very significant share of the Dutch economy, Eindhoven is the home of a great number of start-ups and creative industry companies and hosts many prestigious events, exhibitions and conferences that attract more than 3.500.000 guests per year.

Eindhoven is also known as the City of the Lights as Philips produced the first incandescent light bulb in Eindhoven back in 1891. The city is now strongly connected with the lighting research and GLOW festival, the light and color festival held every autumn, attracts world famous designers and artists. This results to a great cultural life and the students enjoy a fantastic international creative and colourful atmosphere throughout the year.
