Ersti-Bag
Students entering ETH in their first year of studies receive their “Ersti” (first year) bag from VSETH. This sustainable bag is loved by all students and is used even after the goodies and flyers have been removed. Be it as a sports bag or to store books. We offer the opportunity to promote your products or services directly to the fresh audience. It is a great way to get your name out there.
