Total well-being for students and staff of the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich
SKY Campus Zurich is a student-led, constantly growing community that focuses on the comprehensive well-being of students, lecturers and staff.
Our workshops are based on scientific methods and focus on the holistic well-being of students, faculty and staff.
We regularly organize events and workshops on the topics of breathwork and meditation, emotional intelligence, inclusion and belonging, leadership and social responsibility, in which UZH and ETH members are welcome to participate.

The pilot project for quality assurance of PhD supervision at the University of Zurich will start in the fall of 2024. This project aims to ensure and continuously develop the quality of PhD supervision in the long term by introducing a standardized feedback mechanism.

Dear colleagues,
We are excited to announce the third edition of the Open Science Retreat will take place from April 13-17, 2025, in Beatenberg, near Interlaken in Switzerland!
This annual retreat is a chance to reset in nature while reflecting on open science topics to inspire your next career move. It’s a week of engaging discussions with international peers mixed in with one-on-one career mentoring/coaching, workshops, and plenty of networking/social activities. The retreat follows an unconference model, where topics are proposed and decided by the participants.
We cannot wait to meet you.
Best wishes,
Your Open Science Retreat organising committee
