Zurich University of the Arts, Art and design university in Zürich, Switzerland

The Zurich University of the Arts occupies a converted yogurt factory building in the western district, featuring specialized studios and performance spaces for 2,500 students.

The institution emerged from the 2007 merger of the School of Art and Design and the School of Music, Drama, and Dance, with roots dating to 1878.

The university maintains connections with the Museum of Design Zurich, the Theatre of Arts, and the Mehrspur Music Club to enrich student experiences.

Students can pursue bachelor's and master's degrees in art, design, music, theatre, film, and dance, with additional PhD programs through international partnerships.

The Toni Areal campus transformed Europe's largest former yogurt production facility into an educational space with specialized workshops and performance venues.
