About Cover
Cover is the study association for Artificial Intelligence, Computing Science and Computational Cognitive Science at the University of Groningen (RUG). Both the Bachelor's and Master's programmes are under the Faculty of Science of Engineering. As a 30+ year old association, it has since amassed 1000 members with an even split of international and Dutch students.Our goal is to support our members throughout their studies. We organise a variety of educational workshops, social gatherings, and career-oriented opportunities throughout the academic year. We work with a diverse range of companies to show where our students' studies can take them.
