Afternoon Excursion on Wednesday, June 1
Four options are available for the afternoon excursion followed by a conference dinner in the historic ETH Dozentenfoyer.
Please choose your preferred topic and tell us at the registration or later at the conference.
Option 1: Walk along the lake of Zürich
Option 2: "Kunsthaus Zürich" – Art museum in Zürich
Option 4: Historic City Walk in Zürich
Feel the fascinating spirit of history during a walk through the picturesque old town. Hear about the development of Zurich from a modest Roman toll station to become the economic hub of today’s Switzerland. Don't expect a detached lecture with uninspiring sequences of names and year dates but rather look forward to an enjoyable and informative flavour of what happened in Zurich over the centuries.
Full day excursion on Friday, June 3
Tour to the Heart of Switzerland
Mount Rigi, Lake Lucerne and Lucerne City
