Order

A significant part of the history of ETH Zurich can be seen in its buildings. A closer look also shows how important and formative the university buildings have been for the city since the Semper Building was built like a crown over Zurich’s old town. However, the publication also looks to the future, to the Science City project, which will expand ETH Zurich as Switzerland’s attractive place for thought and culture worldwide.
