Events

Are you passionate about your studies and considering to pursue a career in science? Maybe a PhD is something for you! In order to help everybody get a clearer idea of what doing a PhD is like, we want to invite you for the DLF PhD Panel on May 28th (17h30 - 19h). Here PhD students from Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy & Computer Science will tell you about their experiences and answer all your questions. Afterwards you can enjoy dinner and some drinks in De Fusie.

If you have suggestions for questions you would like us to ask the PhD panelists, you can suggest them here.

Are you new to De Leidsche Flesch or not feeling like going to an event alone? Our Buddy System is here to help! We’ll pair you up with an older student who will accompany you to the event. This way, you can join in together and meet new people. This also applies to the Thursday borrel in De Fusie , where you can go with your buddy!

Are you an older student and interested in being a buddy? You can also sign up via the website or speak to the board!

As a student you might know what you do for your study, but your parents probably don’t have any clue yet. Therefore, it is time that they will experience how it is to be put in the lecture seats and what it means to study at our faculty!

The Guardians’ day organised on Saturday the 24th of May will be the perfect opportunity for this. De Leidsche Flesch organises a programme where you can show your parents what we do at the university. The day program, including lunch, is completely free. The walk-in starts at 9:30 AM and the lectures start at 10:00 AM. The day's program ends at 5:00 PM (just like your parents’ average work schedule!). Afterwards there will be a BBQ (max. 7 euro) and drinks where you can compete in a pubquiz together with your parents! Enroll yourselves and your parents here now!

FK RESET, FK YEAH

Tired of all those exams? Time for a well-deserved break! Drop by the FK on May 26, 27, or 28, where the FK committee is bringing the good vibes and cozy atmosphere! 

Unwind with a big jigsaw puzzle, dive into the FK game-cabinet for some fun board and card games, or jump into our cosy-corner where after the lunch a round of Mario Kart can be started. 🎮🃏

And of course… what’s relaxation without snacks? 🍿😋 We've got plenty, so come by, recharge, and forget about the exam stress for a while. See you there!

Interested in cutting edge physics research? Come join us on May 26th, where we will visit AMOLF (National Research Institute on Complex Matter) and Nikhef (National Institute for Particle Physics) in Amsterdam! In both institutes we will get a tour and researchers will tell us what they are working on, with plenty of time for you to ask questions. If you like what you see, it is even possible to do your thesis with them!

We meet 12:30 at Leiden Centraal and visit AMOLF & Nikhef between 14h - 17h. See you all there!

Do you know how to use your brain?  Prove it!

Dear lovely cooks and food enthusiasts of the Leidsche Flesch, we've got some exciting news!

On Tuesday, May 27th, the Cooking Guild is hosting a potluck dinner at De Fusie. The idea is simple: bring something homemade (or store-bought) to share and enjoy together as dinner. Be creative and have fun with it! You are welcome from 17:00, and dinner will kick off around 18:00. If your dish is best served warm, feel free to arrive a bit later to keep it fresh.

Hope to see you there!

We have a fridge and freezer available in the FK that can be used that day. Please note: the board will have a meeting that morning, but feel free to knock if needed. There's a microwave in De Fusie available for use.

If possible, please bring a small note listing any relevant dietary information or allergens (e.g., vegetarian, vegan, contains dairy, nuts, etc.).
