The planning for the new campus started a decade ago, in 2012. In line with EHL’s forward-looking spirit, a central idea was to include the younger generation and students’ feedback in the design by calling for proposals from architectural and landscape design schools through a vast worldwide competition. The winning team was invited to EHL to work closely with professional architects and engineers on everything from design work and budgeting to securing building permits, for over two years.

After five years of construction, EHL is proud to have inaugurated its new Lausanne Campus at an event on Friday 8 July 2022.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

The resulting campus takes learning beyond the classrooms while allowing students to enjoy their school life. They can experience the various bars and restaurants, outdoor and indoor spaces, sporting and recreational facilities – all of which function as experiential classrooms – while absorbing the multitude of different cultures that are specific to EHL.

The new campus is also designed to create more proximity with industry players. There are now more dedicated zones for meetings and activities where students can build connections with faculty and external business professionals as they interact and socialize with them
