Everyday life

  • Are you looking for accommodation?
  • Do you need help with paperwork, such as the health insurance which you will need to live in Switzerland?
  • Are you facing financial difficulties?
  • Are you someone with specific needs, like a part-time worker, professional sportsperson or someone with a disability?

Get in touch with the Social Office

To balance your personal life with your professional life, the Equal Opportunities Office (BEC) implements and supports a range of measures guaranteeing the equal opportunities of women and men across the UniNE. It is designed with all members of the university community in mind, with specific measures intended for women as well as those who are responsible for family care.

Education

Mobility

The UniNE strongly encourages its students to undertake part of their programme at a different university, whether in Switzerland or further afield. On the Study Exchange Office website, you will find all the current options within Switzerland and beyond (Swiss-European Mobility), as well as the opportunities for financial assistance (grants, etc.). You will also find details of courses offered by other Swiss universities, as well as business internships.

Libraries

Whether you are putting together a presentation, report, study or thesis, looking for relevant scientific articles, or simply searching for new information, the Academic Information and Library Service (SISB) is there to help.

Language centre

The Language Centre (CdL) offers students, academic staff and administrative and technical staff at the University of Neuchâtel the opportunity to improve their language skills in English, German, Italian and Spanish.

Careers Centre

If you are at the end of your studies and have questions about your future professional direction, your CV or your cover letters, a range of help is available to you at the Careers Centre. The Centre also organises Careers Night, an important date in the University’s calendar, which prepares you to enter the world of work.

  • Do you need an email account?
  • Or help using a particular piece of software?
  • Are you trying to buy a mobile phone without breaking the bank?
