How strong is Zurich Federal Institute of Technology?
The English abbreviation of this school is ETH, which ranks first in Switzerland and is located in beautiful Zurich. The history of the school can be traced back to 1854, which is younger than Oxford University and Harvard University founded by 1096.

ETH is the largest university in German-speaking areas, and enjoys a high reputation in the world like MIT in English teaching. The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, together with its sister school, the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne and its affiliated research institutions, became the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, which is affiliated to the Swiss federal government.

The reputation of Zurich Federal Institute of Technology in education is comparable to that of MIT. It is different from our admission standard of Tsinghua Peking University, and it belongs to lenient entry and strict exit. Of course, the relaxation of access mentioned here is relative, and the threshold is still beyond the reach of many people.

Geographical environment:

The main campus of Federal Institute of Technology Zurich is located in the center of Zurich. It was founded in 1860, adjacent to the University of Zurich, where the departments of mathematics, mechanics, electronics and computer are scattered and integrated with the city.

Because it is difficult to expand in the city center, since the 1960s, the school has built a new campus at the foot of the Hnggerberg mountain in the north of the city, also known as the Science City, which integrates materials, architecture, civil engineering, physics, biology and chemistry. The distance between the two campuses is 5 kilometers, and there is an uninterrupted school bus every day. The journey takes about 15 minutes. Besides, it can easily get to Zurich bus.
