A bachelor’s degree in Education at this level usually suits applicants who want an initial route into teaching or education-related study rather than a postgraduate specialism. In this group, the options are all public institutions, so the main question is which kind of public provider fits your plans best, from applied sciences and teacher education to university-based study.

The choices differ by setting as well as type. Winterthur, Fribourg, Bern, Zurich, Zug and St.Gallen give you a mix of bigger-city and smaller-city environments, and all of the institutions here are public. Fees are published for some programmes and not for others, so you should compare the published tuition carefully and ask each university directly where the fee is missing.

Before you apply, verify the exact programme title, the tuition fee, the language of instruction, and the admission requirements for the bachelor’s in Education you want. Also confirm the teaching focus, since some options are university of applied sciences or teacher education routes and others are broader university settings.
