The HAN campus in Arnhem

The HAN University of Applied Sciences campus in Arnhem has everything you need to make the most out of your studies. Libraries. Private study rooms. But the campus is more than just a place to study. 

Sip a cup of coffee in the Hangar and chitchat with your friends. Regain your focus with a meditation session in the Silentium. Need some fresh air? Go out for a walk in the tranquil Presikhaaf park. Or pet a goat and watch bunnies at the nearby petting farm.

A quick guide to our campus

Where to drink coffee?

Looking for a cozy place to sit down and chat? Then the Hangar is the place to be. Get yourself a cup of coffee. And a snack, if you feel like it! The Hangar is located in Ruitenberglaan 31.

Where to eat?

Each building has its own canteen, where you can get drinks and snacks. The larger canteens also offer warm meals. There are several cafes, where you can wind down with fellow students after a day of studying. Are you vegan? Do you have allergies? No worries, there are options available for everyone.

Where to hang out?

Music nights. Pub quizzes. Soccer matches. Or just simply have a drink with friends. You can do all of this in Lokaal 99, located right in the middle of the campus. It's the perfect place to hang out after a day full of studying with a refreshing glass of beer (or to have a 'borrel', as the Dutch would say).
