    Established in 1855 as the Federal Polytechnical School, ETH Zurich has, from the outset, been a national center for education with international appeal, attracting talent from all over the world.
    At ETH Zurich, students discover an ideal environment for independent thinking, researchers a climate that inspires top performance. Situated in the heart of Europe, yet forging connections all over the world, ETH Zurich is pioneering effective solutions to the global challenges of today and tomorrow.
    Our university for science and technology dates back to 1855 when the founders of modern-day Switzerland created it as a center of innovation and knowledge.
    The successful combination of a cosmopolitan outlook with national roots made the young educational institution one of the driving forces behind industrialization in Switzerland: it brought the necessary expertise into the country, trained technical specialists, and set up groundbreaking national infrastructures.
    ETH Zurich was given its present name, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule), in 1911. Over the decades that followed, it entered into solid partnerships with the state and with industry. It invested increasingly in both applied and fundamental research, which were gaining in importance about education. The university grew steadily, and in 1961 it embarked on the first stage of constructing its second site on the Hönggerberg, on the outskirts of Zurich.
    In more recent times, global developments such as computer-assisted data processing and the far-reaching consequences of globalization have placed ever-increasing demands on universities.
    ETH Zurich reacts to these new challenges by creating flexible organizational structures: new research units and programs have emerged. The research itself is becoming more and more integrated and interdisciplinary.
    The long-standing tradition of ETH Zurich, combined with its ability to adapt to new requirements frequently, has brought much success to the university. Today, it ranks among the world’s leading universities of science and technology.
