The aprentas project is an example of how the vocational schools are anchored. It was founded in October 2000 by the companies Ciba (now BASF Schweiz AG), Novartis and Syngenta. Today, aprentas trains around 500 apprentices in 15 different professions (scientific, technical and commercial professions). The trainees come from the sponsoring companies Novartis and Syngenta as well as from the more than 70 member companies.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"e-n-tab-content-1441291893\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-tab-title-1441291893\" data-tab-index=\"3\" style=\"--n-tabs-title-order: 3;\" class=\" elementor-element elementor-element-eb85f3c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"eb85f3c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ca3fa4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6ca3fa4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Facts and figures (as at 2023)<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b35f73 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1b35f73\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<h5>LIFE SCIENCES RANKING OF THE ETH<\/h5>\n<ul>\n \t<li>Times Higher Education \/ Shanghai Ranking 2024: 15th place<\/li>\n \t<li>QS World University Ranking 2023: Rank 70<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h5>LIFE SCIENCES RANKING OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BASEL<\/h5>\n<ul>\n \t<li>Times Higher Education \/ Shanghai Ranking 2024: 86th place<\/li>\n \t<li>QS World University Ranking 2023: Rank 98<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-496fcff8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"496fcff8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" id=\"welcomedesk\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;gradient&quot;,&quot;shape_divider_top&quot;:&quot;waves&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shape elementor-shape-top\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-negative=\"false\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 100\" preserveAspectRatio=\"none\">\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" d=\"M421.9,6.5c22.6-2.5,51.5,0.4,75.5,5.3c23.6,4.9,70.9,23.5,100.5,35.7c75.8,32.2,133.7,44.5,192.6,49.7\n\tc23.6,2.1,48.7,3.5,103.4-2.5c54.7-6,106.2-25.6,106.2-25.6V0H0v30.3c0,0,72,32.6,158.4,30.5c39.2-0.7,92.8-6.7,134-22.4\n\tc21.2-8.1,52.2-18.2,79.7-24.2C399.3,7.9,411.6,7.5,421.9,6.5z\"\/>\n<\/svg>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-780a589c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"780a589c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31302707 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"31302707\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Do you have any questions?
