ESN Switzerland (Erasmus Student Network)

Erasmus Student Network (ESN) is an European-wide student organisation, created to support and develop student exchange. We have more than 540 local sections in 40 countries working in Higher Educational Institutes (HEI) being organised on a local, national and international level with approximately 15,000 active working members. Our network is in direct contact with more than 220,000 international minded students. ESN Switzerland is comprised of 15 local sections representing most of Switzerland's Higher Education Intitutions. The aims of ESN are to promote the social and personal integration of the exchange students. We organise welcome parties and all kind of fun events, all year long. We also set up buddy programs, provide information and may even come and fetch the students at the airport when they arrive. We are here to make their stay more enjoyable and easier.
