Advanced studies at the University of Lausanne
Law | Social and Political Sciences | Geosciences and Environment | Biology and Medicine
An increasing number of people are embarking on advanced studies after their degrees with a view to targeting their entry into the job market or developing their expertise in a field related to their studies. The Master of Advanced Studies (MAS) programmes last from one to two years (60 to 120 ECTS credits) and are intended for students who hold a Master, a "licence" degree or a university diploma and wish to acquire specialised vocationally oriented skills.
The UNIL aims to increase the range of advanced courses offered by its faculties, while at the same time ensuring their excellence and Euro-compatibility (ECTS credits system), so that all holders of an advanced study qualification from the UNIL can be sure their diploma will be recognised and valid at a European level.
The Continuing Education Centre also offers several Master of Advanced Studies programmes designed more specifically for students who already have working experience acquired over a number of years. For more details on the courses offered by the Continuing Education Centre, see the website: www.unil.ch/formcont.
