Director's Message

I take pride in welcoming you to Webster University Geneva

image: Robert SpencerAt Webster University Geneva the concept of an international education becomes reality, as 670 students from over 90 countries come together as a community of learners engaged by a faculty representing 25 nations. A Webster education is attentive and personal. We care about your development both as a person and a professional.

Our academic facilities are modern, attractive and well equipped. We offer off-campus residence in a building dedicated to our students, as well as on-campus residence. And we have excellent recreational facilities featuring a fitness center, a game room, and an entertainment center. Webster Geneva is a real American university campus only 8 minutes by train from the center of Geneva!

Geneva and the surrounding countryside bring added dimensions to your Webster education. Given the presence of the United Nations and other major international organizations, many important international businesses and the largest private banking center in the world, Webster students have the opportunity to take advantage of the resources offered by these institutions to augment classroom learning. And when it comes to recreation, whether skiing, hiking, climbing, or cycling, the Alps offer some of the best sporting terrain in the world, and they are right at your doorstep!

Geneva is situated in the heart of Europe so when you want to immerse yourself in the culture of other European cities, places like Paris, Rome, Madrid, Vienna, Berlin, London and Amsterdam are all accessible in less than two hours by air, and rail service in and out of Geneva is first rate.

And how about the rest of the world? When you are admitted to Webster University Geneva, you are admitted to an international university network where the world is your campus. You are able to study in London, Leiden, or Vienna if your goal is to stay in Europe; but opportunities also await you in Thailand, China, Japan, Central or South America and the United States. I invite you to join the Webster University community of learners and engage in an international educational experience without parallel.
