The School of Architecture, Design and Civil Engineering is not only rich in tradition, but is also one of the largest and most innovative educational institutions of its kind at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences.
The degree programmes offer aspiring young professionals outstanding educational opportunities to prepare them for their future careers. The programmes have close connections with application-oriented research and development and graduate level education, thus helping to create synergies between the two distinct professions of the architect and the civil engineer, and promoting cooperation and mutual understanding between them. In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, the ZHAW is recognised as a compact University of Applied Sciences with valuable links to important universities at home and abroad.
