Celebrating 100 years! October 30, 2025

We have had the great privilege, over the years, of receiving many former students who have spoken with incredible enthusiasm of “the best year of their life.” One is reminded of the words so aptly spoken by Saint Augustine: "The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." Not only have our students had the privilege of reading several pages, but they were also fortunate enough to read several chapters during their education abroad – and in several languages. For one hundred years, our program has worked to grant academic knowledge to our students and to provide them the chance to expand their horizons, to learn other languages, to learn about other cultures – and to learn about themselves and their values and develop their Weltanschauung as future leaders.

Think all Swiss innovations are sleek and modern? Think again.

Since 1899, the Fribourg funicular has been powered by... wastewater. One carriage fills with sewage and descends, pulling the other up—no electricity, no fuel, just gravity and a bit of genius.

Still in use today, and true to its original 1899 design, it remains a rare piece of moving history—preserved and operational in the heart of the city.
