Resources

We know, navigating academic life isn’t easy. That’s why we made providing help, resources and guidance for academic staff at ETH one of our main priorities. On this page you can find links to our different services.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by academic, administrative or personal challenges during your time at ETH? Do you need a confidential space to talk things through and find support? The AVETH counselling service offers peer-to-peer guidance and coaching to help you navigate difficult situations and find constructive ways forward.

The AVETH Survival Guides are comprehensive, student-driven resources on topics such as finding a doctoral position and what to expect on your first day at work, as well as advice on life in Zurich, finishing your PhD, and more to support you throughout your PhD or postdoc journey.

Are you new in Zurich and would like to meet new people to connect with? Expand your network within and beyond your field? AVETH organizes a variety of events – from bookclubs to matchmaking evenings.
