meet EFR With over 6000 members, EFR is one of the most active and most professional study associations of Europe. From academic events, to recruitment occasions and social gatherings; we bridge the gap between theory and practice.

Each year, we organise various activities and events for students of the Erasmus School of Economics, as well as other students of the Erasmus University. Among other things, we offer the cheapest books, provide study support, and organise social events to help students feel at home in Rotterdam. We also help prepare you for the labour market, bring you in touch with your future employer, and enhance your student experience.

Each event is based on one of EFR’s four pillars: development, orientation, network and education.

All events of EFR are organised by committee members. You can now apply for one of our committees, so you can organise one of our events yourself!
