International Students' Committee (ISC) St. Gallen


The International Students’ Committee (ISC) St. Gallen is an independent initiative of students at the University of St. Gallen. Every year a team of 25 students brings enthusiasm and exceptional personal commitment to the challenging mission of organising a successful St. Gallen Symposium.


As well as designing and planning the symposium, the student team is especially involved with the development of the conceptual framework and content of the “3 Days in May”. It decides on the key themes and fosters contacts with the Circle of Benefactors, selected speakers and key figures in business, politics and society as a whole. It also maintains links with media representatives and leading universities around the world.
