About the City:

Located in the western Netherlands, Rotterdam is best known for its university, riverside setting, lively cultural life and maritime heritage. The near-complete destruction of the city centre during World War II has resulted in a varied architectural landscape, combining Gothic resurgences with modernist and cubist designs in unique harmony. This international and contemporary city is the perfect place for aspiring professionals looking for a rich cultural experience paired with a promising career trajectory.
