Would you like to attend a course but can't find a suitable partner? Then you've come to the right place.
Combining elite-level sport with a university degree is a major challenge. We want to make it possible to combine the two.
It is important to the University of St.Gallen that studies and elite-level sports are compatible. Flexible options are therefore available to student athletes. Would you like to find out more? Dr Pascal Iten, Director of Studies / Deputy Dean of Studies (pascal.iten(at)unisg.ch) or Daniel Studer, Head University Sport (daniel.studer(at)unisg.ch) will be happy to answer your questions.
Since the beginning of 2015, the national umbrella organisation Swiss University Sports has been leading a project commissioned by Swiss Olympic to successfully coordinate elite-level sports and studies at public higher education institutions in Switzerland.
These events last beyond the usual opening hours and have been authorised accordingly.

Participation in Unisport activities is always at your own risk. The organiser accepts no liability whatsoever. Participants are responsible for their insurance. In addition to accident insurance, Unisport recommends luggage, theft and cancellation insurance, depending on the sports activity.
Should an accident occur, the sports instructors, training leaders or Sports Hall staff will provide first aid support. If you are unsure what to do in an emergency or need help, you can always call the emergency number 144.
Please inform us of any accident. This will enable us to check the safety precautions and take any necessary measures to prevent future accidents.

Found textiles, shoes and/or items of sports equipment that have been left behind are deposited in a box in the Sports Hall downstairs by the lockers. At the end of the semester, the items are cleared away and stored for a maximum duration of one year. After that, they will be disposed of. If you need help, please contact the Sports Hall supervisors.
Valuables are kept in the Sports Hall office for a short time and then handed in at the Info Desk (Main Building, 01-036) of the University of St.Gallen.
