Great place to visit! The architecture is monumental and the involvement of students even on Saturday morning is impressive. It must be good to study in this institution! We were limited to a breakfast in the cafeteria and visit;)

I have both a bachelor and a masters from this uni, and although I spent most of my uni days criticising it, it stays one of the best technical universities in the world. Sure, management focuses too much on building bling-bling show-off tourist attractions (Rolex-learning center, SwissTech) and not...

An EXCELLENT place to study. Superior teaching & learning facilities.
However Lausanne is not a cosy city to live: the French culture is dominant, as international it is very difficult to really enjoy it if you are not French speaking. Those French speaking guys assume that everyone ON THIS PLANET ...

Amazing university! Amazing campus right on the shores of the lake of geneva, outstanding research facilities, and very interesting and diverse master level education! (However the 1 bachelor year is pretty harsh since only 35% of the students succeed!)

A very well thought out, very complete polytechnic: presence of numerous toilets on each floor of each building or almost, store and restaurants and even a metro stop!) Very good atmosphere in general. Those who study there are very fortunate.

I have been studying at EPFL for 1 year and I am more than entirely satisfied with it. The setting is very pleasant (view of the Alps, close to the lake ...) and the study conditions are optimal. The teachers are excellent: recognized, committed and interesting.
If you have the opportunity to study...

Pubs close at 2am, whereas clubs are open longer. However, an entrance fee of 10-25 CHF is common in the clubs. The typical beer price is around 7 CHF for 0.5l. For some strange reason it is very common to serve small glasses of 0.25l, so be aware of this if you are thirsty. The pubnights arranged b...
