rETHink project
The rETHink project initiated by ETH President Joël Mesot the roadmap for the university’s ongoing institutional and organisational development. The project is designed to ensure that ETH Zurich remains competitive in the future.
ETH Zurich is today in excellent health and retains its international reputation as Switzerland’s foremost institution for teaching, research and knowledge transfer. Even so, the challenges facing the university have grown significantly in recent years:
The purpose of the rETHink project is to enable ETH Zurich:
- to further strengthen individual responsibility at all levels – the professorships, academic departments, Executive Board and central administrative units
- to establish excellent professional structures throughout the university for student support and personnel leadership
- to strengthen strategic and operational leadership at all levels
- and to foster and further develop collaboration and core values in order to promote a sense of belonging among all members of the ETH community.
The actual project implementation will involve close collaboration with the professors, academic departments and relevant participating bodies.
