Why Pursue the TPP Programme?

  • The TPP programme is offered by ETH Zurich one of the world’s leading technical universities and ranked the best university in Continental Europe.
  • Complementing their science or engineering backgrounds, participants acquire additional skills in public policy analysis in order to thrive at the intersection between technology and public policy.
  • This continuing education programme at the technology-policy interface is unique in Switzerland. Internationally, it is among a small, select group of similar programmes, mostly in Anglosaxon countries.
  • It is based at an interdisciplinary ETH Institute (the Institute of Science, Technology and Policy) that involves engineers, natural scientists, and social scientists from across ETH, and thereby serves as a platform for research and teaching across disciplines.
  • The programme combines general skills in policy analysis with opportunities to apply these skills to the policy issues that interest programme participants or to problems that are relevant in their professional settings (e.g., mobility, energy, public health, the digital space, urban planning, environment / sustainability, security, and others).
  • The TPP programme is highly modular, offering flexibility for participants already employed in the public or private sector (see structure and schedule).
  • Profit from high-level interactions with academics, experienced practitioners and peers in this exclusive programme with 10 to 20 participants.
