Data as a mirror of an institution

Data can often be more revealing than long speeches. They allow us to understand an institution through its multiple facets, whether it be its missions, its operations, its organisation or its achievements. EPFL unveils itself through its data and the key figures that define it, revealing general statistics as well as some unknown angles. For EPFL, the transparency of its data is also a communication channel to reflect its identity, evolution, and dynamism.

This site presents EPFL’s institutional data. You will find the raw data of the institution’s key indicators, and you can explore their trend. You will also find thematic overviews reflecting EPFL’s actions in critical areas, as well as the impact of an academic institution on its environment and its role in society.
