Overview
EPFL is a Swiss federal institute of technology based in the Lausanne area. Its origins lie in the École Spéciale de Lausanne, founded in 1853, and it adopted its present federal identity in 1969. The distinction between those dates reflects the development of the institution rather than two separate schools in this directory.
