Study360

Study360 is a project by STAN that creates more opportunities for students to study together. Every exam period, this initiative allows you to reserve a spot at a very unique public study place. When you’re bored of your room, why not try studying at the MAS with a panoramic view over the city? Some locations might even host a silent disco as the ideal study break.

The locations and opening hours vary every period. It’s best to always go as early as possible, because some locations are very popular among students.

Permeke

All kinds of people come together here: children, young adults, movie addicts, book lovers, students,… It’s a very popular study place, so make sure to book your spot via Book a place. As this library is a bit more crowded, it’s definitely not a bad idea to bring noise cancelling headphones or earplugs.
