iBuddy programme

Each year, Erasmus School of Economics welcomes new IBEB students like you from all over the world. With new cultures, new people and a new environment, it can be an overwhelming start. You might have many questions about Rotterdam, housing, finances, public transport and social life yet to be answered. Would you like to receive a warm welcome to Rotterdam and have someone ready to help you answering all your questions? Together with ESE, the official school association EFR offers you the chance to join the iBuddy programme: the perfect opportunity to engage with a wonderful intercultural experience by having an older IBEB student helping you out.

By joining the iBuddy programme, you will already get a glimpse of what your life will be like in Rotterdam and as an IBEB student, so do not hesitate and subscribe now on the EFR website! 

Do you like to show students around and are you willing to help the new freshmen during their first weeks? Then we are also looking for you! Sign up as a mentor via below button as well. 

For more information about the programme, please send an e-mail to the IBEB committee: ibeb@efr.nl.

 

To make the most of your time in the Netherlands we recommend using the International Student Services platform. Here you can on one hand get information and sign-up for services such as a bank account, insurance and mobility card, and on the other hand socialize with like minded international students and find part time jobs.
