Finding your way at Hönggerberg

As of December 2013, the Hönggerberg campus will have a new wayfinding system. Guests can find out what will change at a special information event.

The Hönggerberg campus is not only a centre for research and education, but various talks and guided tours that take place here also attract thousands of visitors every year. With the construction of new office and research buildings and two new student residences, it is becoming increasingly important that employees, students and visitors can find their way around quickly and easily. While members of ETH know the building codes such as HIT, HXE and HIL within a short period of time, guests who are just visiting for an event have a hard time finding their way around.

New signage

This is now going to change. In December 2013, ETH will introduce a new wayfinding system on the Hönggerberg with about 90 columns on various streets and squares allowing easy orientation. With streets and squares receiving new names, the building addresses will change as well, which will have various consequences from new postal delivery addresses to new business cards.

Information event

To find out what will change, how it will change, what the consequences will be for addresses and documents and how long the old documents will still be valid, come to the information event on 18 November 2013 from 1.30 p.m. to 2.30 p.m. in building HPV, room G 4.
