Education

The Swiss Education Platform in Photonics provides a coordinated approach to establish a Swiss wide Photonics Education on Master and Bachelor level that covers a comprehensive range of theoretical knowledge as well as practical skills. Industry needs are identified, addressed accordingly, prioritized and implemented to meet those needs. The final aim is to have established a filled pipeline of highly skilled and motivated students who can be employed in any industry that uses Photonics technologies.

The platform predominantly addresses the Swiss SME Photonics industry as well as any related industry that applies Photonics technologies as parts of their products.
