In the first round of the competition, 73 applications were received, a surprisingly high number with high-quality reference projects. Decisive factors in the selection of the 16 offices were sustainability aspects, experience with similarly complex projects as well as urban planning and architectural quality. The selected teams come from St. Gallen, Zurich, Thurgau, Basel-Stadt and Geneva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>Following the selection of the winning project in summer 2025, the canton and the university will further develop the project. Construction is scheduled to start in 2028 and the new campus is expected to open in 2031. The new campus will serve as a place of reflection and a meeting place and will blend harmoniously into the cityscape. The aim is to strengthen the university’s links with the city and its population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>The current competition became necessary because the project selected in 2021 could not be satisfactorily developed further. The new process is now intended to create a viable concept that fulfils the high standards of architecture, sustainability and urban integration.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
