You can find them on that page:
https://www.unifr.ch/psycho/en/studies/master/admission-requirements.html.

You have to “apply” for a change of study course on MyUnifr as soon as all 180 ECTS are validated (see Point 3 of “MyUnifr” guide FR – DE). You can find the deadlines for this change on this page (FR – DE) under “Master consécutif” / “Konsekutiver Master”.

Please ask the service for Admission and Registration to know whether your degree is recognised by the University:
https://www.unifr.ch/studies/en/admission/contact-team/contact-forms/.

You can find the admission procedure to the University of Fribourg on the following page:
https://www.unifr.ch/studies/en/admission/admission-master/.

You can be admitted 5 years after the failure of the previous program (see art. 8 of Regulations concerning the admission and registration of students and auditors at the University of Fribourg):
https://webapps.unifr.ch/legal/fr/document/1427544

No, but you should have at least a B2 level for the language in which the teaching units are given (see this page).

If your bachelor's degree is not from Fribourg, you find the deadline per semester on this page under application periods.

You have to validate some classes at the bachelor's level. You can validate them at the same time as classes at the master’s level. The validation of this programme is mandatory to complete the master’s programme and to start the master’s thesis.

You have to validate some classes at the bachelor's level (up to 60 ECTS), usually over an academical year. You have to complete it before starting the master’s programme.

Around the start of your first semester, you will receive the list of classes you have to validate to complete your complementary programme. On MyUnifr, you will find a third programme with some classes you can take. You have to validate only the list you received. Check the section “Classes” of the FAQ to learn more about the class registration.

A failure to this programme implies the exclusion from the master’s programme.

You should validate it as soon as possible for two reasons. First, you must have validated it before starting your master’s thesis. Second, a failure to this programme implies a failure to the master’s programme.

You need to have validated at least 150 ECTS from you bachelor’s program to make a request for an anticipated master. This can be achieved by clicking on a specific button (“Anticiper un Master” / “Vorgezogenes Masterstudium”) in MyUnifr under “Cursus” / “Studien” (see p.3 of the guide MyUnifr FR / DE). You can find the deadlines for this procedure on this page (FR – DE) under “Master consécutif” / “Konsekutiver Master”.

You have to “apply” for a change of study track on MyUnifr as soon as all 180 ECTS of your bachelor's programme are validated (see Point 3 of “MyUnifr” guide FR – DE). You can find the deadlines for this change on this page (FR – DE) under “Master consécutif” / “Konsekutiver Master”.

No, you are responsible to pick up the classes you want to attend during a particular semester. There are however some mandatory classes that should be attended. It is recommended to validate at least two classes of the module “Methods in Psychology” during your first fall semester to be able to start your master thesis during the following spring semester.

It depends on you, but it is generally recommended to take about 30 ECTS per semester.

Yes, since you choose which classes you want to attend each semester (except for the research colloquium). That provides you flexibility to combine your studies with a part-time job. Furthermore, you have up to 12 semesters to obtain your master's degree.

You can register for classes each semester via MyUnifr.ch. The procedure is described under Point 4 of the MyUnifr-guide (FR / DE). You should use the field “Structure des études” / “Studienstruktur” to filter the classes corresponding only to your option (90-ECTS-program). This filter also allows you to select classes by module (see Figure 1 below).

You should also use this filter when registering for classes of your specialisation program (30 ECTS-program) (see Figure 2 below).

You can find the registration period by semester on the following pages:

FR: https://www.unifr.ch/lettres/fr/etudes/cours-et-examens/inscription-aux-cours-et-examens/

DE: https://www.unifr.ch/lettres/de/studium/kurse-und-examen/kurs-und-examenseinschreibung/

The “first come, first served” rule is applied. Be ready before midnight to register right after midnight. The seats are taken within the 5-10 first minutes after the opening of the registration period (see links below). If you did not obtain a seat, you will be on the waiting list. If someone cancelled his/her registration, this seat will be offered to people according to their position on the waiting list.

DE: https://www.unifr.ch/lettres/de/studium/kurse-und-examen/kurs-und-examenseinschreibung/

You have to unregister for this class during the cancellation period (see links below). If you forgot to unregister for a class on time, you have to validate it.

FR: https://www.unifr.ch/lettres/fr/etudes/cours-et-examens/inscription-aux-cours-et-examens/

DE: https://www.unifr.ch/lettres/de/studium/kurse-und-examen/kurs-und-examenseinschreibung/

You are allowed to miss a maximum of 20% of a block course.

Please check whether you paid your semester fees. You can find invoices and reminders at your unifr email address and on MyUnifr (see this page). Please expect some delay (i.e., some days) between the day of the payment and the access to class registration.

1. Check whether the classes are open to mobility students. You can find the classes for the next semester on that page. You may have to wait until May to know the classes of the fall semester.
2. Register as a guest student.
3. When registered, write an email to the secretary for the master studies indicating the classes you wish to attend during the period for classes registration [FR / DE]. Guest students cannot register to classes.
4. Do not forget to register to the exam session during the dedicated period [FR / DE] to validate the classes.
5. Ask the dean office [FR2 / DE2] for a transcript of records once the classes are validated.

You have two attempts to validate a class. The class has to be validated within four exam sessions after the end of the class, see table below for an example. That means that you have to register for the exam on MyUnifr.ch in the exam session(s) you wish to validate a class. The procedure is described under Point 5 of “MyUnifr” guide (FR / DE). You find the exam registration period on that page (FR / DE).

You can unregister for exams during the cancellation period (see links below). If you cannot participate to the exam(s) for medical reasons, you have to provide a medical certificate to the department up to 7 days after the date of the exam(s), see art. 19 of the rules for obtaining a bachelor’s and master’s degree from the Faculty of Humanities. If your request is accepted, it will be counted as a “justified absence”. The attempt will not be counted, and you will have an additional exam session to register for.

You need to complete the prerequisite classes for the MAS in Neuropsychology at the University of Geneva during your master’s studies at Fribourg. Thanks to an agreement between the two universities, you will not have to pay fees at Geneva.

The recognition of ECTS credits depends on your specialisation:

• Cognitive Neuroscience: Up to 12 of the 18 ECTS can be recognised in the Advanced Studies in CNS module. The remaining 6 ECTS can be taken as supplementary classes (not counted toward your degree but certified by Geneva).
• Developmental Neuroscience or Clinical Child Psychology: Up to 6 ECTS marked as Enfant (E) may be recognised in the Developmental Psychology module. You must obtain approval from the student advisor, Christophe Fitamen (mailto:christophe.fitamen@unifr.ch), before enrolling in these classes.
• Clinical Neuroscience: No classes can be recognised. You must complete the full 18 ECTS as supplementary classes, for which you will receive a certificate from Geneva.
• Other specialisations: No classes can be recognised. You must complete the full 18 ECTS as supplementary classes, for which you will receive a certificate from Geneva.

For class enrolment, please read carefully and strictly follow the procedure available at this link. You can also download the list of eligible classes here. Please ensure that you meet the minimum ECTS requirements in each of the four domains.

You can submit a written request (letter) for credit recognition to the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Humanities (see point 2 in links below). If it is accepted, the department will contact you regarding the further procedure.

You can request a sabbatical semester by following the instructions on this page (see links below). If your request is accepted, you will be “out” for a semester. It means:

• This semester and its exam session(s) will not be counted (fall semester: winter exam session; spring semester: summer and fall exam sessions). You will not “lose” a semester nor exam session(s).
• You cannot register, nor validate classes, nor defend works during this semester
• You will still be student since you will pay the ground fees (no “hole” in the résumé)
• You do not have to inform the teaching staff about your absence. To facilitate the validation of the master colloquium, it would be greatly appreciated if you inform your thesis supervisor about your absence.
