Welcome to the Ressort International

We facilitate intercultural exchange through three types of projects

Exchange Tours

Each of our four exchange tours brings together 20 students from HSG and 20 from a partner university for a 10 to 14 day academic, political and cultural program in Switzerland and the respective partner country.

International Week

The International Week is a network of 20 universities. They all organize a diverse one-week program in their respective country which is attended by students from all the other participating universities.

BuddySystem

The BuddySystem is in charge of welcoming and integrating the exchange students attending HSG. To this end, it matches them with local "buddies", organizes social events and offers a language tandem program.

Our Mission

Through our projects we want to enhance the cultural competencies of our participants and equip each of them with a backpack of experiences that will inspire informed and responsible actions when dealing with complex international issues in their future careers. Additionally, we aim to foster a positive image of St. Gallen and Switzerland as a place of knowledge, innovation and diversity in the world.
