   How it compares

   Switzerland has 80 universities, so this is one option within a large higher-education system. Its profile is narrower than a full university because it publishes only bachelor’s study and a set of applied subjects, which makes it more relevant if you want undergraduate professional or technical study rather than a broad multi-level university offer.
