Incoming
students in Switzerland are permitted to take on limited employment during the
semester under the terms of the resident permit with which they are issued
(L-Permit). Foreign students may work in addition to pursuing their studies.
However, the length of the studies may not be extended as a result of the
gainful employment. You can look for a job either via general job websites,
newspaper ads, the student body at the university or the university itself. The
website below has various links to individual universities.
Students may work to help cover living costs during the term. They may work
either,
1. Up to 15 hours per week during the semester or
2. Up to two months during vacation, following the term of study |
