The Language Center’s sponsor universities, UZH and ETH Zurich, aim to provide language courses to as many Bachelor's, Master's, visiting, and exchange students as possible, as we consider language skills to be of fundamental importance in a university context. The demand for language courses at the Language Center has risen sharply in recent years. In order to meet this increased demand, it is necessary that we expand and diversify the range of courses that we offer.
In order to cover the additional costs incurred as a result, the Language Center's Board of Trustees has decided to increase our fees as of FS24. UZH and ETH Zurich continue to cover most of our expenses, while course participants will continue to make a relatively small contribution through course fees.
The Language Center has introduced financial relief to specific groups as of FS24. Students who can prove that they are entitled to a UZH or ETH Zurich scholarship will now have their course fees waived.
The Language Center is expanding its course program as follows:
New:
Unchanged:
As of FS24, our fee calculation will be adjusted to ensure greater consistency. The new calculation is based on class sizes and number of lessons.
