Challenge Alumni

The Club Challenge Alumni is responsible to maintain the network of former participants, staff and organizers of Challenge EPFL-ETHZ . We are a member organization of the ETH Zurich Alumni Association.

The Challenge EPFL-ETHZ is an annual, now legendary, contest between the two renowned Swiss universities, ETH Zurich and EPF Lausanne. For four days, participants compete against one another in various competitions on and off the ski slopes.

The focus of all races is teamwork, creativity, and the ability to improvise, as well as the readiness for all teams to exceed their limits. The extraordinary evening events are held in an unforgettable atmosphere and serve to maintain and build friendships, create contacts, and network with the members of the other university on the other side of the “Röstigraben".

Therefore Alumni from both schools are connected by the deeply rooted Challenge Spirit:

"Challenge, Drive and Encounter"

While our professional and personal lifes keep providing enough challenges themselves the Challenge Alumni Club makes sure we continue to encounter the new and unknown with decent drive. The annual events help us to keep track of our former fellow students and friends, meet today's students with the unique spirit of a challenger and strengthen our exceptional bonds to our universities.
