We are committed to the continuous improvement of education, research and innovation in Switzerland.
About the Council
The Council consists of 15 independent experts from the fields of education, research and innovation and is responsible for making recommendations to the Federal Council.
The SSC makes its expertise available to federal authorities and stakeholders. The Council aims to continuously improve the framework conditions for the Swiss ERI system, using a “policy for science” approach.
The Swiss Science Council SSC is the advisory body to the Confederation for all issues related to science, higher education, research and innovation policy. For each legislative period, the SSC develops a Working Programme in line with the political authorities' agenda.
