Purple

When you start your study at Fontys in September, you have a warm welcome @ Fontys during the introduction week: Purple!

September is the start of the new academic year. We are excited to host the Fontys Purple introduction week for new first-year students from 25th of August to the 29th of August, 2025 

The Purple introduction week is all about getting to know each other. You will meet your classmates, learn about your program, explore the city where you'll study, and discover Fontys. We aim to make the Purple introduction week in 2025 as wonderful and exciting as it is every year.

Please note that the Purple Team organizes activities during the introduction week in Eindhoven, Tilburg, Venlo, Den Bosch and Sittard. Each study and institute can choose to join all, some, or none of the Purple activities. Some Fontys locations join the introduction week that is organized locally. This mainly applies to the cities of Venlo, Sittard and Den Bosch.

What is Purple?

In 2025, we're excited to host another Fontys Purple introduction week. Purple is all about welcoming new students and helping them get to know their classmates, their study, the city and Fontys. Make sure to check our website for updates about this event.

At Fontys, and for Purple especially, sustainability and vitality are important. We want our students to graduate in a healthy way and in a sustainable environment.

Purple supports these goals by offering sustainable activities and forming partnerships with the right organizations.

For example, we collaborate with Alcoholwijs, a Fontys project that promotes responsible alcohol use. We also work with the mobility project group to ensure Fontys is a safe, active, and accessible place. Plus, we encourage sustainable and healthy travel choices for both staff and students.

Don't forget to follow the Fontys channels before, during, and after Purple. The Purple Team communicates during the week via Instagram and photo's can be found at Facebook.
