The European Graduate School (EGS) is a private graduate school that operates in two locations: Saas-Fee, Switzerland, and Valletta, Malta.

History

[edit source]

The European Graduate School was founded in 1994 in Saas-Fee, Switzerland by the Swiss scientist, artist, and therapist, Paolo Knill.[2][3] It was co-founded by the Swiss Canton of Valais, which is represented in its board.[4] The school initially offered programs in Expressive Arts Therapy, as part of a broader initiative to develop a network of training institutes in Expressive Arts Therapy.[5][6] A division of Media and Communication (later renamed Philosophy, Art and Critical Thought) was established in 1998 by Wolfgang Schirmacher.[2][7][8]

EGS Campus

EGS is licensed as a university in Malta[9] and is recognized in the Swiss canton where it operates,[10] but is not recognized by the Swiss University Conference, the main regulatory body for universities in Switzerland.[11] Teaching is mostly remote, with required attendance for short periods at the school; ad hoc meetings in various cities also take place.[12]
