Erasmus University Rotterdam is a public institution that traces its roots back to 1913. However, the university did not come to exist as it does today until 1973, when the Medical Faculty Rotterdam and the Netherlands School of Economics merged. The university is primarily located in Rotterdam, one of the largest cities in the Netherlands. It is spread across four campuses, including Campus Woudestein, the main location, and Erasmus University College, a residential liberal arts school. Tuition is higher for students from non-European Union and non-European Economic Area countries, with the exception of Swiss and Surinamese students. Student housing is available through organizations unaffiliated with the university.The university has seven academic divisions: economics; law; social sciences; medicine; philosophy; history, culture and communication; and management. There are also three academic institutes – the Institute of Health Policy and Management, the International Institute of Social Studies and the Institute for Housing and Urban Development Studies. The primary language of instruction for bachelor’s programs is Dutch, but some English-taught undergraduate programs are offered. A number of the university's graduate courses of study are also taught in English, including a master's program in strategic entrepreneurship as well as an international MBA program. Education and research activities at the university are primarily focused on four key areas of study: health, wealth (economics and business), governance and culture. Some of the university's research institutes and centers are the Erasmus University Rotterdam Institute for Behavior and Biology, the Rotterdam Institute for Shipping and Transport Law and the Centre for Historical Culture.
