UZH’s Research Infrastructures Score Highly
The University of Zurich achieved excellent results in the Swiss government’s 2023 Swiss Roadmap for Research Infrastructures, acting as the sponsoring institution for 5 out of 14 large-scale priority projects. The results confirm UZH’s standing as a driver of innovation.
Every four years, the Swiss federal government publishes its Roadmap for Research Infrastructures. The infrastructures assessed in the report include large-scale research facilities such as particle accelerators as well as databases and specialized, state-of-the-art measuring instruments.
The ARES project (Airborne Research for the Earth System) develops high-precision instruments for Earth observation and is one of the prioritized research infrastructure projects. The picture obove shows the area east of Wangen an der Aare. (Image: ARES)
