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
Until further notice, 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.
- 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, e.g., Masterʼs Basic Module > 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)
