The Erasmus Student Network (ESN) is the largest international student organization in Rotterdam. We aim to enhance the experiences of all internationally-minded students in Rotterdam by building a strong international community.

Thousands of students attend our events every year. These events include city trips, weekly and monthly parties, sports tournaments, open stage nights, introduction days, dinners, movie nights, active members events, and many more. In addition, ESN-Rotterdam offers the EUR-buddy programme to all new students. Every student, international or Dutch, is welcome to join our community and organisation. We would love to meet you!

How can you become involved? Anyone can join our events, so check our website and socials for what’s coming up! You can also get an ESNcard that gives you discounts at our events, but also with our partners, including RyanAir, AirBnB, Erasmus Sport, FlixBus, The Economist, Slim Academy, and many many more! And lastly you can also join one of our committees and help us organise our events and work behind the scenes. From our social committee to our marketing team, there’s something for everyone!

At the start of each semester, we organise ESN Introduction Days, where you’ll get the opportunity to meet students from around the world and get to know Rotterdam a bit better before you start your studies. Check our website for more information on how to join!
