Education at the Cutting Edge

Being a successful student means more than just getting a degree. Your studies shape the entire course of your life and prepare you for making responsible contributions to our shared future.

UZH offers students an excellent environment full of opportunities and a level of diversity that is unprecedented in Switzerland. We are also developing our teaching on an ongoing basis. Teaching at UZH meets the changing demands of a society in flux – creatively, innovatively and on a wide variety of levels.
Future of Teaching initiative

Each year, UZH students can nominate their favorite member of the teaching staff for the teaching award.

On the annual "Tag der Lehre" held in the Fall Semester, UZH invites dialogue between students and teaching staff and encourages reflection on teaching and learning.
