Master: While studying

On this page we provide additional information relevant to your studies, e.g., registration forms, information sheets, downloads of presentations. If you can't find what you're looking for, a link is broken, or an English translation is missing, please contact us and we will try to add the missing parts.
 

Please note: Electronic submission

All Bachelorʼs and Masterʼs theses, registrations, etc. have to be submitted digitally from your UZH e-mail address to  studies@ifi.uzh.ch

 

General notes

Disclaimer: No responsibility is taken for the accuracy or completeness of this information.

  • Inform yourself about the respective deadlines (module booking and cancellation, submission of written work, etc.), set reminders in your calendar.
  • Note that modules in the Minor Informatics (INF) are offered only in the Fall semester.
  • Always plan enough buffer time (several days for printing, binding and mailing, at least 1 day for electronic submission – the internet is guaranteed to fail exactly when you want to upload your work 10 seconds before the deadline)
  • Follow the required order of certain modules: Masterʼs Project > Masterʼs Thesis
  • Read the corresponding fact sheets promptly when you start a self-study module (fact sheets are revised from time to time; the version currently published on the IfI website applies)
  • Check the "at a glance" slides for your MSc program (below)

MSc Buddies

Every semester incoming MSc students (i.e., Master’s students who come from another university) who have questions about studying Informatics in Zurich can contact our MSc Buddies. The welcome event usually takes place in the 2nd week of lectures and is advertised in the faculty’s Master Welcome Day and in the first week of lectures. Here are this semester’s slides.
