Optimal interplay between theory and practice

At ZHAW, knowledge and specific ways to put it into practice are conveyed to you in a holistic, top-quality, topically current and professionally sound manner. With us, you benefit from optimal interplay between theory and practice: the lecturers bring in their comprehensive professional experience and incorporate the latest scientific knowledge. Here, experts from outside also frequently have a say. Input from practice is a fixed component of the curriculum.
