University of Liechtenstein

Institution Info

The great aim of education is not knowledge, but action.” This dictum of the English philosopher Herbert Spencer might aptly describe the work of the University of Liechtenstein: achieving academic excellence by creating a living symbiosis of quality teaching and research, of theory and practice.

The University of Liechtenstein has developed steadily, and is now an internationally renowned centre of higher education, located in the Alpine Rhine Valley. As such, it offers attractive opportunities for study in the heart of Europe. The activities focus on imparting knowledge relevant to life, and on exciting, research-led innovation, and they are organized accordingly. Anonymity and the ivory-tower mentality are concepts alien to the University of Liechtenstein. People know each other personally on campus. Throughout their courses, the students receive committed personal support and attention. The pleasant campus atmosphere, human interaction and unique location in the Principality of Liechtenstein all contribute to teaching and research. This is a place where personalities blossom.
