Utrecht Science Week

Utrecht Science Week

At the Utrecht Science Park, the biggest science park in the Netherlands, over 55,000 students and 30,000 employees work together to develop and apply groundbreaking science and solutions in the fields of life sciences, health and sustainability. The Utrecht Science Week puts the relevance and results of this cooperation in the spotlight. For inspiration, to make even more of a difference together. And to strengthen and expand existing cooperation and discover new, promising coalitions and alliances. There are programme components for employees, students, alumni and professionals in the field of life sciences, healthcare and sustainability, but there is also plenty of interesting things to experience for the broader public and younger target group from Utrecht and its surroundings.

Utrecht Science Week

Utrecht Science Week was created in 2021 to make the value and progress of all this work even more visible to a wide audience of stakeholders and interested parties in the coming years.

This will be done in a highly varied programme including lectures, debates, tours, and creative competitions for devising solutions to issues of sustainability and healthy living. Established events such as the Betweter Festival, the Weekend of Science and the Day of Sustainability are part of the multifaceted offering. All this takes place at various locations in the Utrecht Science Park, and sometimes in the city of Utrecht. In 2022, Utrecht Science Week was dedicated to celebrating 900 years of Utrecht, ‘city without walls’.
