Putting
theory into practice
Like all other institutions of higher education, Zurich University
of Applied Sciences’ School of Management (SoM) is a seat
of advanced learning and research. But what sets SoM apart from
many of its peers is the School’s strong emphasis on putting
theory into practice.

Working with industry and government
Since it was founded in 1968, SoM has worked closely with industry
and government on numerous projects and consulting assignments.
These contacts benefit both parties: our business partners receive
expert advice and support while SoM’s Institutes and Centers
use their "field" experience to develop new courses
and training programs.
BSc, MBA or diploma courses: Study at SoM!
In addition to the Bachelor
of Science in business administration,
finance, banking or business informatics and the Bachelor
of Business Law degree, SoM offers a wide range of executive programs,
including the much coveted Executive MBAs, as well as diploma
and continuing education courses. Moreover, whether you decide
to do a degree course at SoM or only individual units, the credits
earned here are recognized by most American and European universities
and other academic institutions around the world.
Indeed, SoM is committed to a multicultural learning atmosphere
and therefore actively supports student
and faculty exchange programs with academic institutions in Europe and in the USA.
The benefit of partnerships
But academic qualifications are only part of the story. At SoM
we combine strong educational performance with practical expertise
and teamwork. The partnerships and consulting contracts we
have with private industry also allow SoM students to apply
the theory
they learn in the classroom to actual business situations.
