ETH is (unarguably) Switzerland's best university and the best university of Continental Europe. It is a Polytechnic Institute, so any topic you choose to study here will have a strong mathematical / theoretical touch to it. ETH students (especially Bachelors) seldom have a happy life. The competition is high, exams tough and professors are stingy in giving grades. But that's ETH and that's its mentality: high quality standards are hard to reach and no pain, no gain. That's also why Swiss people have a high respect for ETH and its students (unlike other universities in other countries of the world). For Master and PhD level, all courses and research are conducted in English. High percentage of students and professors even are non Swiss, so fitting in is not a challenge from a background perspective. Graduating from ETH offers one with a great recommendation and starting point for any university in the world, as well as for any company in Switzerland.

Make sure to also take the glass elevator all the way up. It's easiest to enter the building from the back. When entering from Rämistrasse, it's slightly tricky to find the way to the library. There are lockers to leave your bags, which you're not supposed to bring inside (need a 2CHF coin). No flash photography so that the people studying there won't be disturbed.
