Education Policy

ETH Zurich ranked first place in the latest comparative study by WWF Switzerland on sustainability in Swiss higher education.

The popular initiative against animal and human experimentation did not stand a chance in the summer session of parliament. Both the National Council and the Council of States rejected it without a dissenting vote. The Council of States also wants to discuss the role of science in a crisis in more detail. It has therefore referred a motion on the subject to its Science Committee.

The summer session of the National Council and Council of States begins on 31 May. Interesting for the ETH Domain are the popular initiative "Yes to the ban on animal and human experimentation", debates on the relationship between science and politics, and a motion calling for campaigns against harassment at the two Federal Institutes of Technology.
