ETH Zurich is the most international university in the world. This recognition from the Times Higher Education World University Rankings emphasises the value and importance of international exchange for academia, the economy, and society. Times Higher Education (THE) has ranked ETH Zurich the most international university in the world. For small countries, like Switzerland and Singapore, a strong international ranking may seem inevitable, but for Switzerland it is a necessity. ETH Zurich President Lino Guzzella: 'I am pleased that ETH Zurich has achieved recognition as the most international university in the world. While such rankings are important for the university's reputation, it is more important for ETH to prepare Switzerland for the major structural changes that technology will bring to the country. I am convinced that in a rapidly changing world, long-term competitiveness can only be assured by keeping our borders both politically and academically open.' - Why universities need to think globally .
