A house for small and big ideas

The Student Project House gives you an opportunity to think outside of your curriculum. Here, you learn how to identify a need, design solutions and test your hypothesis with real prototypes. We are convinced that combining the knowledge gained in your studies with the freedom to explore will lead you to great innovations.

Tune In

You do not need an idea to get involved. Important is a desire to tackle a problem. Join us to discuss and learn more about challenges our world is facing.

Act

You want to move straight to action. Join one of our programs, start your own project with our mentors or get involved in an existing project.

Create

You are very clear as to what you want to do and simply need a space to test and prototype. At Makerspace you can use various tools and machines to make it happen.

Tune Into Social Innovation

Where solutions to unsolved problems in society are born

Are you keen to explore challenges around climate change, deep poverty, inequalities, alienation and many more? Join our  talks, hackathons and 'design challenge' programs to learn and experience how new products, processes or partnerships can tackle unsolved problems in society.

Tune Into Future of Food

Where Food and Agriculture innovations are born to feed future generations

Innovative solutions are required to tackle global food challenges of today and to identify opportunities along the entire food value chain for tomorrow. If you want to support development of solutions in the area of food and agriculture, this is the place to find out more.

Get Involved

Either through one of our programs, existing projects or by applying for mentoring, you can start your own discovery of creative solution to a problem already today.

Create Your Prototypes

Makerspace is a place where you can test your ideas, prototype and get advice on design & fabrication. It's open for all ETH students and affiliated persons.

OnBoard

Projects

OnBoard

OnBoard is an online platform where community members learn with each other. While various studies have shown formative assessment and immediate feedback play a key role in learning, it remains challenging to make the students' learning experience individualized. OnBoard combines the good sides of traditional classrooms and massive open online courses.

Nao

Projects

Nao

We are three students with a passion for sports and nature (ETH, UZH & HSG). During one of our training sessions, we had the idea of combining natural energy with great taste and a lifestyle product. Our vision was to use the energy of nature to help people achieve more. We didn't need artificial ingredients to develop our Nao drinks. Nature inspired us.

Chaze

Projects

Chaze

Swimming is one of the technically most demanding sports. In order to effectively convert power into speed, many factors must work together in perfect harmony. And despite how many people do swimming as a sport, good feedback is difficult to find and doesn’t come cheap: Currently, swimmers have the option to either join a club or get private lessons. Both options are costly and don’t fit every swimmer’s desire for flexibility and independence.
