Mentorship Program and Airport Pickup Initiative
We are aware that newcomers who come from different parts of India to attend ETH/UZH programs face many obstacles in settling in Zurich. Problems start right after landing at the airport. How to travel to the residence in Zurich, where to buy groceries (Indian / Swiss), how to proceed with registration for a residence permit and other paperwork, etc. are some of the most common questions you have. Through the mentorship program, the existing students can help you settle in Zurich with the least possible glitch in your life.
We, the organizers, will try to assign an existing student living in Zurich (mentor) to one or more newcomers (mentees). We will try to assign a mentor from the same academic program as the mentee so that information related to coursework and projects can also be given. The mentor or some available person may volunteer to pick up the mentees from the airport and drop them at their respective residences.
