Membership is open to PhD students, research assistants, postdocs and all other scientific employees of the Institute. All AVETH members of the institute are automatically members of the PSA. PSA was established in early 2006, when we became independent from the general DCHAB association and became an official sub-organization of the AVETH (Union of Assistants of the ETH).
