Swiss Engineering Business School - SEBS

 

​​​​The ​​Swiss Engineering Business School - SEBS is a project of the ISE association. Training and further education belong to the Swiss Engineering STV's mission. Article 1.2 of the Statutes, which describes the purpose of the association, clearly states that the STV is “committed to high-quality training and further education” and considers further education of its members an important part of its activities. SEBS is an implementation of the Swiss Engineering STV's LifeLong Learning (LLL) strategy, and provides training and continuous education in two areas (IT and engineering business faculties).

SEBS focuses on formal education as well as non-formal education at tertiary level. Our approach is based on a hybrid format of study, including an active participation in Association events, possibility of recognition of previously completed courses and educational programs, as well as close and multifaceted cooperation with companies throughout Switzerland and abroad.

 

SEBS is heir to the STV's glorious tradition of business engineering & IT education, international activities and career development support. Here an extract from the chronicle:

Swiss Engineering Innovation Hub

 

 

The Swiss Engineering Innovation Hub – a project of the ISE association – brings together various stakeholders to facilitate innovation and collaboration in the field of engineering. Our key networking activities include:

 

Organizing events: such as workshops, conferences, and networking events to bring together engineers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and other stakeholders to share ideas, collaborate on projects, and learn about new developments in the field.

Facilitating mentorship and coaching: we provide opportunities for engineers and entrepreneurs to connect with experienced mentors and coaches who can provide guidance and support as they develop and commercialize their ideas.

Building partnerships: with other organizations such as universities, research institutions, and companies to facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Networking with the industry: we help to connect engineers and researchers with industry partners to increase the chances of technology transfer and commercialization of developed products.

Swiss Engineering Innovation Hub aims to create an environment where engineers, entrepreneurs, and researchers can come together to share ideas, learn from one another, and collaborate to turn innovative ideas into real-world applications.
