Future-oriented environments for teaching and research
ETH Zurich develops inspiring and future-oriented environments for teaching and research. It combines a sustainable campus with state-of-the-art technology platforms, creating the ideal conditions for students and tutors to develop innovative ideas and engage in globally relevant research. Its sustainable campus development is the product of its deep awareness of its environmental responsibility. Accordingly, ETH Zurich sets itself ambitious sustainability goals, including the achievement of its greenhouse gas emissions targets and the promotion of sustainable mobility options for ETH members. Inclusion is a top priority at ETH Zurich: the university wants to remove barriers and welcome people from different backgrounds and abilities, allowing them to develop their full potential.
ETH Zurich committed to sustainable construction
ETH Zurich consistently tailors its real estate portfolio to the demands of teaching, research and knowledge transfer, as well as the necessary support services. Innovative project methods and cost-conscious project management help to push down costs, allowing more resources to be allocated to academic work.
Last year ETH professors, researchers and staff were able to move into two new buildings. The BSS laboratory and research building in Basel is the new home of the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering (D-?BSSE). The integration into the Sch?llem?tteli campus provides optimal conditions for collaboration with local research partners as well as with pharmaceutical and biotech companies. In Zurich, the new GLC building on the Gloriarank site offers space for the Department of Health Sciences and Technology (D-?HEST) and the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (D-?ITET), creating a modern development and laboratory building that brings together teaching, research and translation in the fields of health, medicine and medical technology.
ETH as tenant and partner
The development of new premises is driven by the steady rise in staff and student numbers. ETH plans to gradually expand its own portfolio of properties in keeping with the special building regulations for the H?nggerberg campus. It rents some premises in order to satisfy the acute demand for space. This strategy allows flexible management and the effective use of resources.
ETH expands its presence at Innovation Park Zurich
ETH Zurich has rented more space at Innovation Park Zurich (IPZ) in Dübendorf under a 20-year agreement. In Hall 2 the main focus is on fixed-term cooperation projects between industry and spin-offs or research groups. In future, Hall 3 will be available for student teams to carry out their own projects and take part in international competitions, for example. By choosing the IPZ site, ETH aims to strengthen collaboration between science and industry in the Greater Zurich Area.
New medical research site in Schlieren
ETH Zurich is boosting its medical research by establishing a new site in Schlieren and leasing a new laboratory building (SSA) right next to the Bio-?Technopark. This proximity will promote networking among the various research and industrial entities at the site while fostering existing collaborations, resulting in an optimal research environment. With a main usable area of around 7,000m2, the SSA offers space for around eight to ten professorships and/or research groups in the life sciences field.
Sustainability
“Our successes to date provide a good basis for making the culinary choices at ETH even more sustainable in future, with the help of suitably targeted measures.”Isabelle Castagna, sustainability manager at ETH Sustainability
For the past ten years, ETH Zurich has been working with catering companies SV Group and Compass Group to provide more sustainable meals in its campus restaurants. They have been successful in their core mandate of steadily reducing CO2 emissions in the shopping basket. A research- and data-based approach, in combination with goals determined by a holistic approach to sustainability, helps develop meals using food from transparent supply chains. The choices offered are also healthier and more affordable.
Diversity
“Let’s create a university that is accessible to as many people as possible, based on the ‘Design for all’ principle!”Romila Storjohann, head of the Barrier-Free at ETH Zurich project
Back in 2014, Switzerland ratified the external pageUN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Nevertheless, people with disabilities continue to face obstacles on a daily basis, whether accessing buildings, information or events. In April/May 2023 ETH Zurich organised a number of events to highlight and raise awareness of the situation and share information as part of its “Design for all” campaign.
