Study in French? Far away from home? And in which section?
To answer those questions, almost 300 high-school students from the German- and Italian-speaking parts of Switzerland have visited EPFL on the 3rd of December during the traditional Infotag/Giornata Informativa.

Organized once a year, this open day gives the chance to German- and Italian-speaking prospective students to collect information about EPFL's study programs, take part in short workshops and discover our campus life.


The 13 sections did a great job opening the doors of their labs to our visitors and present their respective curriculum. Also, EPFL students coming from the same areas gave advice to their young peers and showed them around campus. As numerous as last year, our guests went home with visible enthusiasm!
