REC E and H closed from 10 to 20 August 2026

Published on 29-06-2026
From 10 to 20 August 2026, REC E and H will be closed due to major maintenance on the electrical installation. During this period, power in the buildings will be switched off and REC E and H will not be accessible. The work has been deliberately scheduled during the summer holidays to minimise the impact on teaching and examinations.

Library Learning Centre

During the closure of REC E and H, you can use the library services at the Law Library on the fourth floor of REC A. There you can borrow Chromebooks and requested or reserved materials, and ask questions about the collection and services. The study spaces are freely accessible to everyone during this period.

Student Services EB temporarily at another location/online 

From 10 to 20 August, Student Services of Economics and Business will be at the following locations: 

  • Education Desk: The physical desk has been temporarily moved to M0.04. 
  • Exchange Office: The physical walk-in hours will temporarily be replaced by online consultation hours
  • Study advisers: The study advisers can only be reached online during this period. 
  • EBCC: The EBCC can only be reached online during this period. 

Renewal of the electrical installations in REC E and H

The main and distribution electrical panels in buildings E and H are being replaced. This renewal of the installations reduces the risk of failures and creates capacity to connect more equipment in the future.

Energy consumption and sustainability 

The new installations will also make it possible to monitor energy consumption. With these insights, we can use the electrical installation more efficiently and better target energy savings.
