Complexul Studențesc (Romanian for "Student Complex") is a district of Timișoara, where the city's main universities – West University and Politehnica University – are situated. Located south of the Bega Canal, Complexul Studențesc was built to house the students of the two universities in the early 1960s.[1][2]
It is one of the densest areas of the city in terms of population. Here there are several dozen student dormitories, noted for their murals,[3] which house more than 10,000 students annually.[4] The area is also noted for its vibrant nightlife, with dozens of bars, pubs, and clubs bordering the main pedestrian alley – Aleea Studenților ("Students' Alley").[5][6]
