• Overarching procedure

  The complete procedure is described on the page of the International Relations Office. You will be asked to establish a Learning Agreement (i.e. the list of classes you wish to visit).

• Procedure for the recognition of classes in Psychology

  For the Department to validate the Learning Agreement, you have to fill in the ECTS credits recognition form. This form mainly consists of a table where the classes in Psychology you wish to get recognized are listed. Per class, you need to include the following information:

  • the title
  • the official description and a link (if available)
  • the number of credits
  • the UNIFR module in which you think this class can be recognized (e.g. “basis module”, “Methods and interventions on clinical and health psychology”, …)

  Requirements for the recognition of classes:

  • Only master classes can be recognized
  • A maximum of 30 ECTS can be recognized
  • A maximum of 6 ECTS per module (basis module, 2 class modules of the main program and 2 class modules of the specialisation program) can be recognized
  • Only classes taught in English can be recognized in the basis module
  • The mandatory classes in the basis module cannot be replaced by equivalent classes

    The evaluation of the table takes some time. Please send the form for the recognition of classes to the master study advisor(FR / DE) at least a month before the submission deadline of the program.

• Questions

  Contact the master study advisor (FR / DE).

Single classes

During your master program you can validate up to 12 ECTS in other Swiss universities. To make them recognized in your study program, you need first the approval of the master study advisor. The second step is to be registered as a visiting student at the host university. Being allowed to attend a class is sometimes not enough. Below you can find a link per Swiss university which may help you with the registration procedure. Please check thoroughly the procedure and deadlines!
