During the master's degree programme in Biotechnology students may acquire credits at other universities (mobility credits). Thereof, a maximum number of 30 mobility credits can be credited towards the ETH MSc diploma.
Students put together a written study plan for the exchange together with the mobility advisor of the department and their mentor. The individual exchange study plan includes the planned courses and credits at the host university. The Director of Studies decides on the recognition of mobility credits for the ETH MSc diploma based on the student's request.
Note:
Students that do not hold an ETH bachelor's degree cannot participate in the student exchange programmes offered by ETH.
Students admitted to the Biotechnology master's degree programme under the condition of fulfilling additional requirements may only take part in an exchange programme after the additional requirements are fulfilled. Mobility credits cannot not be used for completing additional requirements.
Credits acquired at Uni Basel and credits acquired within the framework of an external project do not fall under the mobility credits category.
The duration of studies will not be extended because of an exchange stay.
