Expectations are sky-high. Studying hard is a prerequisite, but luckily there is also a bit of time to party.<\/p>\n<p>The EUC is still in its early stages of development. Their own building hasn\u2019t yet been finished and, just as is the case for the staff, the students have been offered a temporary solution: they are being taught in the Erasmus MC, where one of the hallways in the Onderwijscentrum has been remodelled to serve as the EUC bastion for now. The students do not seem to mind. They are wholeheartedly enjoying the varied curriculum, the guest speakers, and their introduction with the city of Rotterdam. EM followed the students during their first weeks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
