The ZHW Students’ Association (VSZHW)

All students at the ZHW are automatically members of the ZHW Students’ Association (VSZHW). The Association represents its members in dealings with authorities, the senior management of the ZHW, and students’ associations from other institutions.

The VSZHW is concerned with all issues relevant to studies at the ZHW. Issues which affect students are dealt with at regular meetings of the delegates, where VSZHW representatives for the Supervisory Board and the Council of Delegates are also elected.

The VSZHW Techshop on the first floor of the B building (Technikumstr. Winterthur) and at the Georgenplatz in Winterthur (School of Management) sells study materials at reasonable prices.

The Association publishes its magazine ‘brainstorm’ several times a year. Here ZHW members can speak their mind freely. In addition, the Association has its own useful website, where students can find jobs, accommodation, and more.

To cover the costs of its activities, the Association levies a contribution from all students each semester.
