Master of Science in Life Sciences at Zurich University of Applied Sciences: Personal approach

Before your studies begin, you decide on your personal educational goals, define the topic of your Master’s thesis, and decide on your individual plan of study from the selection of modules together with your supervisor. The focal points you select are recorded in your individual study agreement (ISA). Your personal study programme is based on your educational background, your interests and your objectives. Not only at this stage, but also throughout your studies, you profit from fruitful interaction with your supervisor.

You can find the study agreements for all four specialisations under registration.
