The Faculty of Business, Economics and Informatics observes an open, quality-focused admissions policy based on the admissions regulations of UZH as well as its own regulations and practices. The information below gives you an indication of which categorization to expect.
The submission of a GRE score is mandatory for all applicants from an university outside the European Union / EFTA and the United Kingdom.
Applicants with a Bachelor's degree from a Swiss university, from universities of the European Union / EFTA and the United Kingdom do not need to submit a GRE.
Please use the following code to submit GRE scores:
GRE: institution code 7136
In addition to the older version, you can also submit the new GRE.
Please note, however, that the Score Reports from the GRE General Test at home will not be accepted.
The majority of the additional requirements for the master program in Information Systems are in German.
Holders of a Bachelor's degree from a Swiss university will be categorized into the Master's program in the same specialization as their Bachelor's degree without additional conditions (although additional requirements may apply).
The same requirements apply as for graduates of Swiss universities. The categorization is based on an evaluation of the curriculum of the program of studies completed. If the curriculum deviates in subject-specific areas, additional requirements or conditions (typically 30 - 60 ECTS credits) must be completed. Applicants may be categorized into the Bachelor's program.
If the curriculum deviates in subject-specific areas, additional requirements or conditions (typically 60 ECTS Credits) must be completed. If the subjects-specific deviations are comprehensive applicants will not be admitted to the master’s program.
The decision is based on an evaluation of the curriculum of the study program completed. The applicants are assigned to the Master's level with additional requirements of 30 - 60 ECTS credits.
Attention: Please note that graduates of a university of applied sciences must have earned an overall grade of 5 in a Bachelor's program in order to study at the Master's level at UZH.
Graduates of a minor study program in Informatics may be admitted with additional requirements.
An effort is also made to admit applicants with a university degree from other fields, provided they have sufficient basic knowledge in the areas of specialization.
