Educafe

Next to the (main) entrance of the Zilverling building, you will find the Educafe: a space where you can study, work in groups and relax with your fellow students. There are computer workspaces and you can grab a drink or snack from the vending machines. In short: this is an ideal environment to work together on projects. On the first floor, the EEMCS student associations are situated: Scintilla (Electrical Engineering), Abacus (Applied Mathematics) and Inter-Actief (Computer Science). At present, the study association for the Bachelor’s programme Industrial Design, Daedalus, still accommodates the new bachelor’s programme CreaTe.

The Educafe also hosts two shops: IAPC and Stores. IAPC is a non-profit shop where you can turn to when you have questions about or want information on computers. Besides, you can buy laptops and all sorts of computer parts there for reasonable prices. ‘Stores’ sells components (such as resistors and capacitors) and office supplies. Furthermore, IAPC as well as Stores sells study books. Both shops are run entirely by volunteers and they are open during weekday lunch breaks for most of the year.
