Located conveniently between the two Utrecht University sites, it has its own residential campus in a pleasant part of the historic city of Utrecht. UC-students also have access to all of the academic, social and recreational facilities that Utrecht University has to offer. The 600 students at University College make up a very diverse population.
Students come from various backgrounds and countries, with different motives and interests.
What they have in common is their international orientation, their intellectual interest, and their ambition to make a difference. Since everybody lives on campus, the students form a community of their own in which they learn to respect, understand and accept each other. The Fellows of the College are in charge of each of the four departments, and have a special responsibility with regard to the quality of the entire academic process. They also teach some of the courses in their departments. All Fellows and professors are members of the Utrecht University Faculty, and have offices on the University College campus.
