Graduate Courses

Graduate courses are offered by the members of the MIM PhD program (see below). The courses can be taken throughout the PhD program. All courses are part of the course catalogue of UZH or ETH:

- external page course catalogue UZH

- course catalogue ETH

PhD students may also choose other graduate courses from the course catalogue of UZH / ETH, as long as they complement the education in a meaningful way.
