Description : The University of Fribourg is inextricably part of the city of Fribourg, a primarily French-speaking medieval city and student city. German is also widely spoken in Fribourg, making it a truly bilingual place to live. It is also a comparatively inexpensive Swiss city. UNO students get to know Switzerland's unique history, from its historical 'neutral' status to the United Nations office in Geneva to it’s natural beauty, from Lake Maggiore to Dufourspitze, the highest peak in the Swiss alps. Students can spend a semester or year on exchange in Switzerland studying in either German or French at the University of Fribourg. The relationship between UNO’s English Department and University of Fribourg’s English Department is strong, and those studying linguistics and English literature can take numerous interesting courses at Fribourg.
