American Institute of Applied Sciences in Switzerland

Four of the ACS (American College of Switzerland) teachers created the American Graduate School of Business in 1991, which flourished one of the leading international business schools in Switzerland.

The American Institute of Applied Sciences in Switzerland offers students a practical and relevant education across all programs. Students are provided with a practical curriculum that sets them up for success in their chosen career path. Through our industry specializations, students gain the hands-on knowledge, tools, and confidence to prosper in their career path.

The AUS Research mission is to increase the visibility and impact of applied research at AUS by fostering students' and faculty members' research skills and competencies .Three major thematic areas are put forward as Research Strategic Pillars with specific goals and directions for each. Specifically, the AUS Research strategic pillars are:

• Visibility : Improve communication about AUS Research internally and externally.
• Impact : Introduce internal process changes to increase research resources and productivity impact.
• Leadership : Increase support for fostering research skills and competencies for students and faculty members.

The work opportunities offered to AUS students and graduates are essential for becoming better business leaders. We strongly encourage students to undertake numerous internships during their studies and throughout the summer months, allowing them to practice their theoretical knowledge and enhance their learning experience through real-world application.

Thanks to partnerships with Paragon, the International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) in Zurich, and other partners, AUS students easily find internships in Switzerland and abroad.
