a strong dialect of German; 22,9% speak French; 8,2% Italian, and
0.5% Romansh, a minority language spoken only in Canton
Grisons. A small percentage of the population speaks non-national
languages.
The Swiss Confederation is based on a federal system. Its present
form was established by the 1848 Constitution. An historically
evolved federal structure gives each of its 26 Cantons a consider-
able degree of political freedom and administrative independence.
While Switzerland is not a member of the European Union (EU) it is
economically and culturally integrated with it. In 2002, Switzerland
became a member of the United Nations.
Switzerland’s famous mountain ranges largely determine the
variety of local and regional microclimates. In the south, Ticino
enjoys a hot, mediterranean climate, but the rest of the country
mostly has a central European climate, with average temperatures
typically in the low-to mid 20°C in the summer, and between 2°
and 6°C in winter.
That part of the Swiss Confederation which lies entirely south
of the Alps is known as “Svizzera italiana”, Switzerland’s Italian-
speaking region. It comprises the whole of Canton Ticino and four
valleys of Canton Grisons (namely Mesolcina, Calanca, Bregaglia
and Poschiavo) for a total population of just over 350,000. Lugano
is the main city: it forms a conurbation of more than 63,000
inhabitants and is the third financial centre in Switzerland after
Zurich and Geneva. Other towns worth mentioning are: Bellinzona
(the seat of Canton Ticino’s government), Locarno (renowned
tourist centre), Mendrisio, and Chiasso.
Italian is the official language for the whole region: it is spoken by its
local residents and used in all forms of official communication
in the public sphere and administration. Most local people are to
some degree fluent in French and/or German, rather less in English.

Studying at USI Freemover programme
If the student’s home university does not have a bilateral agree-
9
ment with USI, the student can study at USI with a freemover
status. Freemovers are fee-paying students from universities
outside Switzerland who would like to independently arrange to
spend a study semester. At the Faculty of Architecture freemovers
are not accepted. Fee payment is an essential condition for
matriculating or renewing one’s enrolment.
Entrance The main conditions for admission are the following:
requirements Exchange students must be enrolled in a university having signed
a bilateral agreement with USI (freemover excluded);
Exchange students may spend a minimum of one semester and a
maximum of 2 semesters of study at USI;
Applicants must provide evidence from their home institution that

USI, through its International Relations and Study Abroad Service Application procedure, organisational aspects and reports written
offers the following possibilities: by former exchange students are available at:
Swiss Mobility programme
For students matriculated in other Swiss universities who wish to www.usi.ch/en/academic-mobility-usi-incoming-students
study at USI one or two semesters.
Swiss-European Mobility programme, SEMP (former Erasmus)
For students coming from partner institutions to study at USI for
one or two semesters, benefiting from a mobility grant. At present,
USI has over 80 bilateral agreements with universities all over
Europe.
Switzerland will not participate as a programme country in Erasmus+
for the academic year 2018–2019. As a consequence, Switzerland
will pay the scholarships for students doing an exchange at a Swiss
university. Grants are awarded to individual students if all the
necessary conditions are met. Students will be informed about
the procedure for obtaining the grant once arrived in Lugano
or Mendrisio. The precise monthly amount of the grant will be
announced in due time, but it is likely to be similar to the one paid
in the framework of the Erasmus+ programme. The grant is
paid independently of the number of ECTS earned.
International agreement programme
For students coming from partner institutions outside of Europe
with whom USI has established bilateral agreements to study at
USI for one or two semesters. At present, USI has twelve interna-
tional agreements.

Economics): In the Master’s programmes, in addition to the winter and
summer examination sessions, there are normally two mid-term examination

one semester to another and is communicated to students by e-mail with

of USI is Italian.
Generally speaking, foreign students attending undergraduate
classes at the Faculties of Communication Sciences, Economics
and Architecture should be reasonably fluent in Italian to cope with
the necessary coursework without too much difficulty.
Occasionally, some lectures and seminars are held in English,
German, or French, and thus a basic understanding of one or more
of those languages is recommended for successful studies.
Please remember that the language spoken locally is Italian.
Wherever possible, course material is made available in translation,
too, for ease of reference. By previous agreement with the
respective Professor, examinations may be sat in Italian, English
or one of the other Swiss national languages (German/French).
