Planning your arrival

GISA Student Association

The Geneva Graduate Graduate Institute Student Association (GISA), organises social events during the week before the semester begins, and also in the first week of the semester. These events provide a great opportunity for you to meet your fellow students and will also help you to become integrated and settle in.

 

Student Initiatives

The numerous Student Initiatives - among which the Geneva Impact Investing Association (GIIA) - also organise a number of events at the beginning of the semester and during the academic year.

 

Culture and Sport

Students enrolled at the Geneva Graduate Institute have access to a range of facilities and activities on offer at the University of Geneva. These include sports and cultural activities, amongst others. Moreover, these can be a good way to integrate further and meet new people in Geneva. 

 

A Cosmopolitan Environment

Students at the Geneva Graduate Institute come from over 100 countries, have different backgrounds and have many interests. The Institute is a cosmopolitan environment in which students can learn from each other about their diverse cultures and traditions. Students are able to participate in a wide range of activities, events, trips and programmes outside of the classroom that enrich their entire student experience. The Geneva Graduate Institute also provides on-campus housing, as well as a number of important services that help students to succeed.
