Your campus
A place to live and study
A laboratory for experimenting with tomorrow
Located in a verdant setting on the shores of Lake Geneva, the Dorigny campus is home to state-of-the-art infrastructure and modern buildings in a varied setting (including forest, stream banks, agricultural fields, lake shores and more) linked by footpaths that are home to a wealth of biodiversity.
UNIL aims to strengthen its position as a pioneer in sustainability and pursue its own ecological and social transition, thanks to cutting-edge research, interdisciplinarity, the civic commitment of its scientists and raising the awareness of the student body. Sustainability is an integral part of all of UNIL’s institutional processes, particularly on campus, an exceptional, cutting-edge space for incubating and experimenting with new ideas, research and discovery.
UNIL is aware of its responsibility and mission to its community in supporting the major societal changes of the future, guaranteeing it an intellectually and socially transformative environment.
