University of Lausanne
UNIL Founded in 1537, the University of Lausanne comprises seven faculties where approximately 11,000 students and 2,200 researchers work and study. Emphasis is placed on an interdisciplinary approach, and there is close cooperation between students, professors, and teaching staff. The University of Lausanne is spread over three sites, the largest of which is in Dorigny on the shores of Lake Geneva. The peaceful green landscape with views of the Alps and the lake provides an ideal setting for study and research. A wide variety of disciplines are covered, ranging from Greek Numismatics to Cyber-Marketing or Developmental Biology, and three faculties are unique in Switzerland: Law and Criminal Justice, Biology and Medicine, and Geosciences and Environment. Attractively located in the heart of the French-speaking region of Switzerland, the University of Lausanne pursues an active collaboration at local and international levels. More than 30% of the teaching staff and more than 20% of the students come from abroad. Up-to-date, well-equipped, and at the forefront of the latest technological developments, the University of Lausanne is an ideal center for the exchange of ideas that lead to intellectual, scientific, and economic progress.
