House rules

All persons making use of Leiden University buildings and grounds must comply with the general University house rules. These are listed in the Regulations on the Use of University Buildings, Grounds and Other Facilities, and are intended to guarantee order and safety for guests and staff alike.

In addition to the University Regulations, some University locations also have their own house rules. Violation of the local house rules or the University Regulations may lead to exclusion from a building.

The Faculty of Science has a number of house rules. The aim of these rules is to guarantee order and safety for visitors and employees in the buildings.

House rules

Leiden University considers a healthy working environment as important. From 1 August 2020, smoking on the premises of Leiden University will be prohibited.

Leiden University, affiliated with the Healthy Universities Network, wants to offer staff members and students a healthy and smoke-free learning and working environment with smoke-free premises. The new policy helps people who want to quit smoking and protects non-smokers from smoke nuisance and passive smoking.

Questions? Please contact the Service desk.

In the buildings of W&N, presence outside normal working hours is only allowed if this is required for the progress of normal activities. Activities and experiments outside working hours may only be carried out with the permission of your supervisor. The presence of at least 2 people is required.

From her responsibility to the community and the environment, FWN has drawn up clear guidelines regarding "Flyers and gluing". This is to keep the current flow of information manageable and to prevent paper waste.

These guidelines are intended for (commercial) organisations and/ or institutes/ departments that want to publish, display or otherwise promote activities within or around the faculty.

 Flyers

Flyers are subject to a general prohibition within the faculty. Placing stands or distributing flyers or advertising brochures, is also prohibited, both inside and outside the FWN buildings.

Stick on

  • It is important that the topic on the posters is relevant to a large group of staff/ students, and preferably has a link with the study or research.
  • Advertising and political and discriminatory statements are not allowed.
  • Posting may only be done at the designated locations.

Promotional activities

For questions regarding the possibilities, please contact the Faculty Board.

General display house rules

  •  Unambiguous appearance of poster locations, both in furnishing and in facilities
  • The display locations are unambiguously chosen by Facility Affairs.
  • Poster boards can be made temporarily available in consultation with Facility Management, if this has been requested in advance and a clear period has been agreed. It is important that the applicant knows that it is temporary.
  • If institutes / departments still need more space for their communication, they can request this and this will be discussed within Facility Affairs.
  • Institutes determine the layout of their corridors themselves; considering the general building rules in the field of signage, safety and art & curiosities. If this does not happen or damage occurs, this will be recorded with the institute manager.
