Study Areas

A learning environment that suits your needs and preferences can help you study in a more relaxed and focused way. To find the right learning environment for you, think about the following:

• Quiet or noisy?
• Alone or with others?
• At home, in libraries or in cafés?
• Alternating or always the same?

The UZH buildings and the 30 university library sites offer a wide choice of spaces where you can study and work. The locations cover different needs – whether you’d rather work alone somewhere quiet or in a group in a place where you can feel inspired and interact with others. When there are no lectures or classes taking place, you can also study and work in empty seminar rooms.

More and more University Library locations are open to students 365 days a year as well as during the building opening hours. You’ll find everything you need to know at a glance on the library’s website:

The University Library offers some 3,000 study spaces in its locations alone. But they’re in high demand during exam season. Many libraries therefore let you book spaces in advance.
