The only two vet schools are at the University of Bern and the University of Zurich, both of which are German-speaking... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schools_of_veterinary_medicine#Schools_of_veterinary_medicine_in_Switzerland

Who said the States was the best in the West
Who said the States was the best in the West?
My and the wife and 5 other buddies are leaving the United States. I have many in demand skills that are needed everywhere especially in the States. I've got my degree in business, I.T., and Sociology. My wife is a Registered Nurse. Some of my friends that are leaving are 2 Medical Doctors, 1 Dentist, 1 Accountant, and 1 other Registered Nurse. We are very close friends and we've all reached a consensus that that United States won't be such a great place to call home in the future. It could not be more blatantly obvious the the Quality of life in the U.S. is failing while other countries are improving. My and the wife are moving to Sweden. My friends are going to Canada, Australia, and Switzerland. Most of them already have job offers and they will all be making more money with their new jobs. My question is, isn't it sad that the U.S. is failing it's own people in promising the land of Milk & Honey which it so obviously lacks? Isn’t it sad; the direction in which the U.S. is heading? So much social disorder. So much poverty. No quality healthcare for the general public at large. No retirement. No social security. All with homelessness and obesity becoming such an epidemic. And there is no relief. No help from the government. The rich continue to exploit the poor. The poor are held down with no room for advancement. There is no end in sight for how ugly the future looks for the United States. Is anyone out there even concerned about this? What can be done to stop the downward trend of the U.S. And with so many professionals ditching the States. How could the States remain competitive worldwide? Inflation is becoming a huge problem in the U.S. The cost of living continues to climb each year while the income remains the same. Also there are more imports than exports. More money if flowing OUT of the States rather than IN right now. The U.S. borrowed billions of dollars from China and still has no way to pay it back. All while the National Deficit continues to soar ever higher. More than 3 trillion right now. Ever heard the saying "The bigger they are, the harder they fall"? Well soon enough the U.S. will start crashing down. And great will be it's fall.

Don't let the door hit ya on the a$$ on the way out. Oh and by the way. You are welcome for providing you, your wife and your friends with a superior education you would not have gotten anywhere else in the world. Again you are welcome.

This isn't an answer, because of course i can say, sure it's sad. but 1st. the milk and honey promise was only made to Israel by God. 2nd, who are "so many professionals". I'm a professional, I have my Masters in psych and working on my Ph.D, and I'm not leaving. I work mostly with MDs and other Ph.Ds and none of them are leaving. Yes there are some countries that do other things well. I hear Germany is very nice. France is out. England and surrounding are mildly interesting. The middle east is going down the tubes fast. China and Russia are no campgrounds. Canada is great i hear too. Every country has it's poor, rich and social injustices. Instead of leaving, maybe try to make your own little nitch a better place. if everyone does that then there would be no reason to leave. The government isn't the answer to all your problems. We are the answer to many of our problems. Good luck anyway.

Life in Zurich, Switzerland
Life in Zurich, Switzerland?
I am 18 years old, from Canada, and I am planning on moving to Zurich in the next 4 to 5 years after I get my degree for a registered nurse. What is the job outlook for this occupation there? I was wondering if anyone would like to share some experiences of living in Switzerland and give me some advice about the work and life there. I love Europe and I heard that Zurich is one of the best cities. If anyone would like to help me out, it would be greatly appreciated :)

Well, I'm originally from Zürich... I think, it's one of the best towns in Switzerland (but not really in Europe..). It has plenty of jobs to offer as well as unnumbered leisure possibilities. An absolute must, if you want to work there as a nurse: Fluency in German (actually, the language spoken by the locals is called Allemanic, some also call it Swiss-German)! Since you still have a few years to go, use it for that purpose. Living costs are much higher than in Canada which I know from personal travel experience. If you would want to look for a job, first try at the local clinics such as the University Hospital: http://www.en.usz.ch/german/default Good luck!

We are moving to Switzerland, and I need help
We are moving to Switzerland, and I need help!?
My boyfriend and I are moving to Switzerland within the next 4 years and I was wondering how hard it is to move there. I am in the process of getting my nursing degree and was also wondering if Switzerland has a high demand for nurses like they do in the US. I am looking to get into the mental health field. 1. Is it hard to get a nursing job in Switzerland? 2. How much do they make? 3. Does a US nursing degree transfer to a nursing degree in Switzerland? Thanks in advance.

I don't have the exact answers to your questions, but I would recommend looking into specific health companies that send people around the world. Try to get a second language down pat and have some experience in your home country before looking to transfer. http://www.msf.ca/recruitment/who-is-needed/nurses/
