The University of Friborg ( French Université de Friborg [ ynivɛʀsite də fʀibuʀ ], Latin Universitas Friburgensis ) in Friborg ( French Friborg ) is the sixth largest and only officially bilingual university in Switzerland .
Overview
The university is located in the border area between German and French-speaking Switzerland . Most courses are offered in German and French, which attracts students from all over Switzerland and the world: the proportion of students from other cantons is above average compared to other Swiss universities , and around 20 percent of the students enrolled come from abroad. Together with the University of Cluj , the University of Luxembourg and the Free University of Bolzano , the University of Freiburg is one of the multilingual universities in Europe.
As of December 31, 2018, the university employed a total of 1,989 people (including 264 professors, 876 research assistants, 849 administrative and technical employees), 10,154 students (6,153 women and 4,001 men, 8,563 with a canton of residence in Switzerland) and 232 guest students are registered. In 2018, 3,466 students are German, 4,490 French and 1,008 Italian as their mother tongue. 149 are bilingual (French and German). The annual budget rose by 5.1 million to 222.1 million Swiss francs compared to 2017.
- It «is one of the few universities in Europe that offers a complete range of courses in more than one language of instruction, [...] is the only one where two languages are consistently used in both teaching and administration».
The mission statement of the university includes quality (establishment of competence centers, mediation of first-class academic education and quality promotion), responsibility (ethical principles and requirements of social justice, climate of intellectual openness, the possibility to deepen the values of Christian humanism) and willingness to enter into dialogue (openness to the world, with in- and foreign universities and colleges, participate in multicultural understanding - especially between the four national cultures - bilingual studies and degrees in German and French, external relations with the canton and city).

history
The university was established in 1889 when, on October 4th of the same year, the Grand Council (Parliament) of the canton of Friborg gave the green light for the establishment of the first university in “Catholic Switzerland”. The State Councilor Georges Python had fought tenaciously for this university . He managed to raise the necessary financial resources and convince politicians of the need for a university.
The college of St. Michael, founded in 1582, and in particular its theological faculty, are seen as the first nucleus of the university. The Dominican order sent from 1890 brothers from different provinces as professors of philosophy and theology. They bought a previous hotel, where they set up a convent and a student convict (Albertinum).
Another forerunner of the university was a law academy ("legal school") in Freiburg in 1763, which was located in the Albertinum and which was affiliated with the newly founded university in 1889 as a law faculty. The foundation of a university in a relatively small town was based on the wish of the Swiss Catholics that a university should also exist in a Catholic canton, and according to Python it should educate elites who protect the people from the dangers of modernity. Even so, the university was never officially a "Catholic university".
In 1941 the main building Miséricorde (Mercy), which is now a listed building and designed by Le Corbusier student Denis Honegger , was inaugurated on the Avenue de l'Europe in Freiburg .
In 2005, a new Pérolles 2 building complex was inaugurated, tailored to 3,500 students and taking into account the increase in student numbers. 11 large lecture halls (including the Auditorium Joseph Deiss, the second largest after the Aula Magna), a cinema and numerous seminar rooms as well as a third cafeteria have significantly increased the space available at the university. Organizational units distributed over many rental properties in Freiburg could be centralized, more remote locations (Portes de Friborg in Granges-Paccot ) were abandoned. In the immediate vicinity of Pérolles 2 were Academy of Sciences of Freiburg , the University of Freiburg economy and the vocational school Freiburg newly built so that a Campus Freiburg has emerged.

Management of the university
The Senate is the university's highest decision-making body. The Senate consists of twelve members, half of which are selected by the state and the other half by the university community. The President is Philippe Savoy as a member appointed by the Grand Council .
The rectorate is the governing and executive body of the university. Members of the rectorate are the rector Astrid Epiney and four vice rectors : Rolf Ingold for research, IT and innovation; Chantal Martin Sölch for teaching, further education and equality; Franz Mali for promoting young talent; Bernard Ries for alumni and libraries, international relations, digitization and interdisciplinarity.
The extended management includes Fabian Amschwand as General Secretary, Lukas Bucher as Academic Director, Monique Bersier as Administrative Director and Alexandre Gachet as Director for IT.
The plenary assembly elects the rector. The date is usually set 15 months before the end of the term of office. The general assemblies of the four bodies of the university (professors, research assistants, students and administrative & technical staff) elect the delegates.
The conference of deans is convened at least once per semester by the rector. In preparation for the decisions of the responsible bodies, important topics relating to the university's strategy and development are discussed there.
The University Council is an advisory body to the State Council. 13 people sit on the University Council, four are appointed by the Swiss Bishops' Conference , the rest by the cantonal Education Directorate. The president is Sabine Premand Sperandio. The council goes back to an agreement between the State Council and the Swiss bishops, who committed themselves to financial support for the university in 1949.
Alumni
Alumni and Friends UniFR is an independent alumni association and aims to bring together the graduates of the University of Freiburg and people close to them, as well as maintaining ties with the institution and contributing to its development.

The central president of the Swiss Student Union, Anton Augustin , and six of his predecessors took the initiative in July 1890 to found the University Association (la Société académique fribourgeoise).
