Vision
The Einstein School strives to be a leading centre that combines public policy with science and technology. Through our work, we support society in making political decisions on the greatest challenges of our time.
Mission
Our mission is based on three key areas of activity:
- Education: The Einstein School offers excellent courses at the interface of public policy, science and technology – especially for Master's students and professionals in continuing education. These courses form the basis for training a new generation of leaders who are highly qualified in politics and administration as well as policy-related fields.
- Research: The Einstein School promotes cutting-edge research at the interface of natural sciences, technology and public policy. It supports projects developed in collaboration with political decision-makers and promotes cooperation between researchers in the fields of public policy, natural sciences and technology in order to make an effective contribution to society.
- Political dialogue: As a central platform for political dialogue, the Einstein School enables members of ETH Zurich to engage in continuous exchange with political and social actors. This creates responsible and constructive dialogues that lay the foundation for well-informed decisions.
