The organisations listed below will all be present at the market. There will also be poffertjes and a barista available outside the venue throughout the day!

Escape Game

We need your help solving a big problem! Prof. Ben Feringa, a professor at our faculty, won a Nobel Prize for his work on the development of molecular machines. But the Prize is missing! Can your mentor group find it in time? 

The game will take approximately one hour, including instructions and playing time. It has been developed as a teambuilding activity for your mentor group. Your mentor will tell you when you will participate in the game.

The door will not be locked, and the environment will be that of a regular education setting in terms of lighting and sound. The puzzles are varied and require the use of different senses. Some require you to stand and move around, for others you can stay seated if you like. You can choose which puzzles you participate in. If you need to take a break during the game, that’s possible.

If you have concerns about participating in the FSE Escape Game, you can contact your academic advisor or let your mentor know.

Introduction to the Dutch workshop

Curious about the Dutch? Unlock the secrets of Dutch culture during our workshop Introduction to the Dutch on 19 September from 11.00 to 13.00 (FBG 5614.0095A). We will dive deep into the world of Dutch rituals, values and communication styles. We will also deal with essential habits unique to the Netherlands while exploring the drawbacks of stereotypes. Don't miss this chance to explore and connect with Dutch culture like never before!

Introduction Camp

A great way to get to know your fellow students as soon as possible, is the Introduction camp, organized by the study association of your degree programme.

The 22nd introduction camp will take place from the 6th to the 8th of September at "De Harmsdobbe" in Bakkeveen. It is only open for first-year IEM students and the theme will be “2 Good 2 Go, back to the 70s”.
