Information for internationals
The Digital Society Hub (DSH) is an inspiring environment, a breeding ground for the Northern region and part of the Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen (location Zernikepark 10).
Digital Society Hub
The Digital Society Hub is a living lab; a physical and virtual place where research, education and practice oriented businesses work together on complex issues arising from the professional field or society. These challenges come from different sectors and industries like health, energy, build environment, engineering, biobased economy and entrepreneurship. The Digital Society Hub contributes to innovative solutions for these challenges through ICT, communication and interactive media.
International Learning Community
The Digital Society Hub is an international learning community as well as a multidisciplinary living lab. In collaboration with other disciplines, participants learn to look beyond the boundaries of their own (field of) study and environment.

It broadens horizons, opens the mind and stimulates creativity and innovative power.
