MANDATORY THEORETICAL COURSESStudents must acquire a minimum of 4 ECTS from the courses listed on the webpage. However, students interested in joining this Master Program are strongly encouraged to collect as many ECTS as possible from these courses and to attend some of these courses already during the BSc program.
ADDITIONAL 4 ECTS can be acquired from any UZH / ETHZ modules. However, choice is recommended from the additional list of modules, which cover important aspects of cancer research or transferable skills.
PRACTICAL BLOCK COURSESDuring the Master’s program, a minimum of 12 ECTS have to be acquired from two of the block courses listed on the webpage. The final choice of modules will be defined in agreement with the Master coordinator to ensure each student has the opportunity to gain both the theoretical background and practical skills necessary to reach the learning outcomes of the program. Those modules in the list that have been successfully completed during the BSc program will also influence the final choice.
