Maastricht University expands with science faculty in Randwyck

The new ‘residents’ of the Paul-Henri Spaaklaan are: the Faculty of Science and Engineering (FSE) and the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML) and are mainly concerned with data science. In December 2019, staff of the south tower will move in and from January 2020 the first students will receive education in the new building in Randwyck.

The new building on the Paul-Henri Spaaklaan, (formerly housed by Mercedes), will be used for educational, research and office purposes. In addition, there is a spacious central hall for events.

The first preparatory work for the renovation of the north tower has already started. As soon as the permit and tendering process has been completed, the renovation of the North tower can actually start.
