School and study associations
The Financial Study association Rotterdam is the study association for students of both Erasmus School of Economics and Rotterdam School of Management, who have an affinity with (Quantitative) Finance, Consulting, Accounting, and Controlling. Each year the Financial Study association Rotterdam organises numerous events such as the International Banking Cycle, the International Research Project, and the Private Equity Conference. The goal is to create a link between theory and the versatile financial world in practice.
EFR/EenVandaag Election Debate
Once in a while, the Auditorium of Erasmus University Rotterdam is the decor of the EFR/EenVandaag Election Debate. Here, leaders of the largest Dutch political parties question each other’s credibility and integrity as they face off on live national television in the country’s election campaign. For many years the Economic Faculty association Rotterdam (EFR) organises these kinds of debates in anticipation of Dutch elections. They do this in close cooperation with EenVandaag, a current affairs programme on the Dutch public television network NPO 1.

National Economics Olympiad
Founded in 2016, the National Economics Olympiad is a problemsolving competition for bachelor and master students in economics, organised by study association AEclipse, in close collaboration with the Royal Dutch Economic Association. Students in teams of three are tasked with solving challenging questions set by professors from different Dutch institutions encompassing topics related to the varied branches of economics. This year, the event was organised at RaboBank headquarters in Utrecht.
