Fostering competencies in students
At ETH Zurich, you will not only receive a solid academic education but also develop a wide range of transferable skills. Both are essential for your future professional career. The ETH Competence Framework provides guidance on which competencies are fostered at ETH Zurich.

“Curiosity for topics outside one's field, empathising with others, and teamwork, for example, can turn purely technical knowledge into solutions. Being aware of these competencies and strengthening them can be crucial for your professional life.”Prof. Dr Günther Dissertori, Rector
Path
myPath is a catalogue of extracurricular activities and services at ETH Zurich designed to support the development of transferable skills.
Course Catalogue
The course catalogue shows which competencies are supported in each course (e.g. lectures, exercises).
At ETH Zurich, lecturers use the competence framework to formulate their courses' learning objectives and content so that it is easier for you to estimate what to expect from our educational offer.
