Groningen is a city where knowledge, talent and innovation come together. Large enough to make an impact, compact enough for short lines of communication and genuine cooperation. With a strong concentration of knowledge institutions, cooperative companies and research organisations, Groningen is the place where talent develops and stays.
The city has over 60,000 students, a quarter of all residents are students. This gives Groningen the largest population of young people in the Netherlands. From practice-oriented vocational education to internationally leading scientific research: the educational landscape is broad, coherent and firmly anchored in the region.
