A Bachelor’s in this field is for applicants who want a first degree in computing, IT, and related technical study. It suits students deciding between a university route and an applied sciences route, since the list includes both research universities and applied sciences institutions.

The options differ in location and pricing. Zurich appears among the cities named, and some institutions are in Zurich while others are outside it. Fee figures are published for ETH Zurich at CHF 1,000 and the University of Zurich at CHF 1,500; for the other institutions, confirm tuition directly before applying.

Before applying, verify the exact programme title, teaching language, admission requirements, and whether the option you want is at a public university or another public institution with a different study profile. Also confirm the full tuition, application process, and intake details for any institution where those figures are not specified.
