Studying at HEAD means living and working in an urban context, in an international city that has a fruitful relationship with many leading cultural institutions. It means learning in an ideal work environment, in one of the four buildings of our new Campus located in the city centre, equipped with workshops featuring the most advanced technology. 

In a friendly atmosphere, with a wealth of culture and events of all kinds, you will study with teachers, artists, designers, and filmmakers, and many guests from all over the world, who will form the basis of your future professional network. 

You will benefit from a real-life teaching experience: students’ projects are exhibited in Switzerland and around the world, screened at festivals, and shown at public events. You will also take part in numerous projects entrusted to the school and its students by local or international institutions and companies. 

HEAD wishes to offer you and all its members—teaching staff, administrative and technical teams, guest personalities—a shared space for work, experimentation, and creation that is open to society. The school cares about its community and believes in its collective capacity to work towards an inclu- sive and diverse environment. It is committed to multiplying its positions; to building, teaching, and embodying different types of knowledge. 

In these pages, you will discover a school that teaches you to be demanding and determined and shares the deep convic- tion that studying at HEAD gives you the tools and contacts necessary, today more than ever, for successful professional integration into the creative economies and more broadly into the various cultural and economic spheres.
