In case of exam: Conditions of admission >Date (session?) > Weight of grade >Mode (written/oral?) > Duration >Exam aids permitted > Examiner (if not lecturer)2.4 Credit systemThe study program uses a credit system which corresponds to the European CreditTransfer System (ECTS). The credit points (KP) awarded for each defined studyachievement reflect the average real amount of work required to attain thisachievement. One credit point is roughly equivalent to 30 hours of work. The entireamount of work required per semester for full-time studies is equivalent to 30 KPon average. The RW/CSE Master Program is designed to cover 3 semesters (2semesters plus a subsequent Master thesis) during which students need to acquire90 credit points in total.2.5 Earning credit pointsThe credit points assigned to a course are awarded either in full or not at all. Theyare awarded if the performance assessment defined for the course in question hasbeen passed. If grades are awarded for the performance assessment, the gradeachieved must be at least 4.0.All courses are evaluated independently, and a student is required to repeat onlythose performance assessments or courses for which he or she did not pass theperformance assessment the first time.Administration of credit points is carried out by the Study Administration Office D-MATH.2.6 Visiting semesters at other universitiesIn the Master Program any number of KP can be earned at another university.However, only a maximum of 30 such KP can be used for earning the Master degree;any remaining KP will be listed on a separate sheet attached to the graduationcertificate at the student's request.Before they begin visiting semesters at other universities, students must draw up awritten study plan in collaboration with the Fachberater RW (Advisor of StudiesCSE). This plan shows the study achievements that the student expects to attainat the host university. The study plan must be approved by the Director of StudiesCSE.Further information about visiting semesters (administrative matters, stipends,etc.) can be obtained from the Advisor of Studies CSE and the Mobilitätsstelle desRektorats (Student Exchange Office of the Rectorate).5

2.11 Ruling bodiesDecisions affecting the RW/CSE curricula are the responsibility of the Rectorate,the CSE Committee (Ausschuss RW), the Director of Studies CSE (StudiendelegierterRW) and the Advisor of Studies CSE (Fachberater RW), the DepartementConference D-MATH, the Students/Teachers Commission CSE (UnterrichtskommissionRW.The Study Administration Office D-MATH is responsible for administrative matters.For addresses see Chapter 7.Ø The students elect representatives to the Students/Teachers Commission andother ruling bodies; these representatives participate and have voting rights.8

3. Overview of the RW/CSE Master ProgramThe RW/CSE Master Program offered by D-MATH requires 1½ years of study 3 (2semesters followed by five months to write a Master thesis). The 90 credit pointsrequired for a Master degree are earned in mandatory core courses, in electivecourses and fields of specialisation chosen by the students, as well as in a termpaper and a Master thesis.The Master Program in RW/CSEStudy period 1st/2nd semester Master thesisCredit points 60 30(minimum number, Core courses 12 5 monthswithout GESS) Fields of specialisation 18Elective courses 6Case studies 6Term paper 8Master degree:(German:Master of Science ETH in Computational Science and EngineeringAbbreviated title: MSc ETH CSEMaster of Science ETH in Rechnergestützten WissenschaftenAbbreviated title: MSc ETH RW)The core courses are of central importance in computational science and engineering.List of core courses:• Visual Computing• Computational Statistics• How To Write Fast Numerical CodeThe fields of specialisation provide deeper understanding of the areas of applicationin computational science and engineering.List of fields of specialisation:• Astrophysics• Physics of the Atmosphere• Chemistry• Fluid Dynamics• Control Theory• Robotics• Physics• Computational Finance3 Up to 2 years if an additional 30 KP (maximum) need to be earned subject to specified admissionrequirements9

• Electromagnetics• Geophysics• BiologyThe elective courses provide students with more extensive and more in-depthknowledge of theory and methods.In the case studies seminar internal ETH and external speakers present examplesfrom their own fields of application – from modelling to computer-based problemsolving. Students have to give a short presentation on some scientific paper.The term paper (Semesterarbeit) enables students to deepen their knowledge ofa certain field, to come into closer contact with applications, and to tackle the problemsarising from such applications using computers. In addition, the purpose ofterm papers is to teach students to collaborate with an existing scientific group.The subject for the term paper is usually taken from a core course or from a fieldof specialisation.The Master thesis is the conclusion of the program. Its purpose is to allow studentsto demonstrate their ability to carry out scientific work in an independent andstructured manner. The subject for the Master thesis is usually taken from a corecourse or from a field of specialisation.The RW/CSE Master Program follows on from the RW/CSE Bachelor Program offeredby ETH. Its objective is to make new, computer-based career profiles accessibleto students. The interdisciplinary training in mathematics, computer scienceand applications is excellent preparation for a career in business and industry.10

4. The RW/CSE Master Program4.1 Admission to the RW/CSE Master ProgramAdmission requirementsIndividuals requesting admission to the RW/CSE Master Program will generallyhave to meet the following requirements:a. They have a RW/CSE Bachelor degree from D-MATH.b. They have a Bachelor degree comprising at least 180 credit points(ECTS) from a university or from a Swiss university of applied science,or a university qualification of at least equivalent value in a subject whichqualifies them for admission to the RW/CSE Master Program. The subjectbackground required (Requirement Profile) is detailed in the appendixto the Study Regulations 2005 for the RW/CSE Master Program.Moreover, they must demonstrate that their knowledge of the teachinglanguage –English – is adequate.The Rector decides on exceptions based on the recommendation of the Director ofStudies CSE.Admission procedureRW/CSE Bachelor students from D-MATH can enrol directly in the RW/CSE MasterProgram provided they need to acquire no more than 30 credit points to gain aBachelor degree. The dates and deadlines for enrolment apply as issued by ETH.Admission is conditional on the student gaining the Bachelor degree. The right ofadmission lapses if the student does not gain the Bachelor degree or cannot gainit because he or she has failed performance assessments or has exceeded themaximum permitted study duration for the Bachelor Program. The Rector decideson exceptions based on the recommendation of the Director of Studies CSE.All other candidates must apply for admission to the RW/CSE Master Program atthe ETH Zürich Rectorate. The application may be registered before the requiredacademic degree has been earned. The procedure for this is determined by theRector. The CSE Admissions Committee (Zulassungsauschuss RW) assesses thecandidates' knowledge level in the relevant subjects and their suitability for theMaster Program. It then formulates a recommendation for admission or nonadmissionwhich is submitted to the ETH Admissions Office, together with informationon credit points acquired and those still to be earned. The Rector decides,based on the recommendation of the CSE Admissions Committee, on admissionor non-admission, as well as on the number of credit points acknowledged andthose still to be earned. The student may not join the Master Program until the requireduniversity degree or certificates of achievement have been acquired.11

Five courses must be attended in the category "Fields of specialisation", one ofthem a seminar. In the seminar a semester project must be completed. In the othercourses exams have to be taken and passed.Students who did not go through the D-MATH RW/CSE Bachelor Program have totake the five courses in the same field of specialisation ("major specialisation") 5 .Students who have completed the D-MATH RW/CSE Bachelor Program canchoose between two options:a. The five courses, including the seminar, belong to the same field of specialisation– one which the student did not study in the RW/CSE BachelorProgram ("major specialisation") 5 .b. Three courses, including the seminar, come from the field of specialisationthat the student studied in the RW/CSE Bachelor Program ("majorspecialisation") 5 ; two courses come from a different field of specialisation("minor specialisation") 5 .Ø Students on the RW/CSE Bachelor Program must select a "minor specialisation"5 (two courses). This can be expanded into a "major specialisation" 5 (fourcourses and one seminar) on the RW/CSE Master Program; alternatively, thestudent may choose a new "major specialisation" on the RW/CSE Master Program.Ø The following applies to students who have already attended courses in thefields of specialisation and sat the associated exams as part of the RW/CSEBachelor Program:• Students who have failed an exam once can only re-sit the exam forthe corresponding course once on the RW/CSE Master Program.• Students who have failed an exam twice cannot take the correspondingcourse on the RW/CSE Master Program.• Students who have passed an exam but have not put the KP earnedin the process towards their Bachelor degree can use these KP toacquire the Master degree by having them credited to the category"Fields of specialisation" or the category "Elective courses".Ø In justified exceptional cases, the Director of Studies CSE may, at the student'srequest, approve attendance of courses other than those available in the fieldsof specialisation.5 All fields of specialisation are eligible for a “minor specialisation” but only those in the list belowlabelled as major are eligible for a “major specialisation”.13

Courses in the fields of specialisation may also bechosen as elective courses provided that they are not already part of the student'schosen fields of specialisation. The Director of Studies CSE may approve additionalelective courses on request.Ø The following applies to students who have already sat exams in electivecourses as part of the RW/CSE Bachelor Program:• Students who have failed an exam once can only re-sit the exam forthe corresponding course once on the RW/CSE Master Program.• Students who have failed an exam twice cannot attend the correspondingcourse on the RW/CSE Master Program.• Students who have passed an exam but have not put the KP earnedin the process towards their Bachelor degree can use these KP toacquire the Master degree.17

4.5 Case studiesIn the case studies seminar internal ETH and external speakers present examplesfrom their own fields of application – from modelling to computer-based problemsolving. Students have to give a short presentation on some scientific paper. Onecourse per semester is offered.The case studies seminar is assessed as passed/not passed and is equivalent to3 KP.Students must attend the case studies seminar twice. The Director of Studies CSEmay approve exceptions for students on an exchange program.4.6 Term paperThe purpose of the term paper (Semesterarbeit) is to deepen knowledge in a certainsubject, to bring students into closer contact with applications, and to enablestudents to take a computational approach to problems encountered in these applications.In addition, students will learn to collaborate in an existing scientificgroup. The term paper is written on a subject from a core course or a field of specialisationand is supervised by a lecturer. For the list of eligible lecturers seewww.rw.ethz.ch/master. The Director of Studies CSE may approve exceptions.The term paper requires approximately 160 hours of work. This is equivalent toabout three afternoons of four hours each per semester week or four to five weeksof full-time work.The supervisor responsible for the term paper defines the task and determines thestart and the submission date.The term paper concludes with a written report and a presentation. It is assessedas passed/not passed and earns the student 8 KP.Ø Once students have decided which lecturer to work with for their term paper,they have to electronically fill in a form for the Study Administration Office D-MATH.4.7 GESSStudents must attend courses of a general educational nature from the humanities,social sciences and political sciences (GESS); required attendance is 1 KPper semester (1st and 2nd semester). For more detailed information seewww.gess.ethz.ch.19

4.8 Master thesisThe Master thesis concludes the curriculum. In their Master thesis, studentsshould demonstrate their ability to carry out independent, structured scientificwork.To be admitted to the Master thesis students have to have fulfilled the followingrequirements: They have completed their Bachelor studies in full; they have compliedwith any requirements for admission to the RW/CSE Master Program; theyhave passed all performance assessments in the categories “Core courses”,“Fields of specialisation” (with seminar), “Term paper” (cf. Subsections 4.9 and5.1).The Master thesis is supervised by a professor of ETH Zürich. For the list of eligiblelecturers see www.rw.ethz.ch/master. The Director of Studies CSE may approveexceptions. The thesis lasts five months. It is typically written on a subjectfrom a core course or a field of specialisation.The supervisor responsible for the Master thesis defines the task, the start and thesubmission date.The Master Thesis concludes with a written report. The Master thesis is graded. Itis equivalent to 30 KP.Ø Once students have decided which professor to work with for their Master thesis,they have to electronically fill in a form for the Study Administration OfficeD-MATH.4.9 Performance assessmentA student has passed a performance assessment in the categories “Core courses”,“Fields of specialisation” (without seminar), “Elective courses” and “GESS” ifhis or her grade is at least 4.0 or his/her performance is assessed as "passed". Aperformance assessment which is not passed can be repeated once.A semester project in the category “Case studies” which is not passed cannot berepeated. The student must attend a further course in the category “Case studies”.A seminar in the field of specialisation or a term paper which has not been passedcannot be repeated. A further seminar must be attended, or a further term papermust be written.The Master thesis is passed if the grade achieved is at least 4.0. A Master thesiswhich is not passed can be repeated once. If it is repeated, a new topic must beselected.20

5. The RW/CSE Master degree5.1 Credit pointsIn order to attain the CSE Master degree, students must acquire 90 KP 6 in the followingcategories, including at least the number of KP shown for each category:a. Main areas 44 KP1) Core Courses (12 KP)2) Fields of specialisation (18 KP)3) Elective courses (6 KP)b. Case studies 6 KPc. Term paper 8 KPd. GESS 2 KPe. Master thesis 30 KPØ The minimum number of KP required in the category a. is 36. If there are stillKP missing to 44 KP after having earned the KP in the subcategories 1), 2), 3)the missing KP have to be acquired in the subcategory 3).Ø KP from courses offered on both the Bachelor and the Master Program can onlybe credited towards the Master degree if they have not been used to earnthe Bachelor degree.5.2 GraduationOnce the requirements listed in Section 5.1 have been fulfilled, students may applyto D-MATH to graduate within the maximum permitted duration of study. TheRector can extend this time limit on application if there are sufficient reasons.The application to graduate must list the performance achieved in the categoriesshown in 5.1 which the student wishes to have included in the graduation certificate.The sum of KP in each category must be at least equivalent to the minimumrequired in each.Other study achievements, not credited for the Master degree, will be listed on aseparate sheet attached to the graduation certificate at the student's request.6 Not including the KP (30 maximum) that may need to be earned subject to specific admission requirements21

5.3 Grades and grade point averageInterim grade certificates are issued at the end of each exam session and documentthe performance that has been achieved and evaluated since the last interimgrade certificate was issued.The graduation certificate contains the following:a. Grades and other assessments carried out in performance assessments andthe grade average determined on the basis of these grades;b. On a separate sheet attached to the graduation certificate, a record of anycore courses that were not passed as well as of any other evaluations of performancethat were carried out.The grade average is calculated as a weighted average from the following grades:a. The two grades in the core courses weight for each: 2b. The four grades from the fields of specialisation weight for each: 1c. The grades from the elective courses weight for each: 1d. The grade for the Master thesis weight: 4Once the Master degree has been conferred, graduates receive a Degree Certificateand a Diploma Supplement. The Diploma Supplement is a document that isintended to facilitate and improve the evaluation and classification of the academicdegree for both study and career purposes. It contains a description of the curriculumthat has been studied and successfully concluded and a Qualification Profileof the curriculum.The attainment of the Master degree is published by the Rectorate.22

6. Doctoral studiesETH offers the opportunity to follow the Master Program with doctoral studies.Doctoral studies and the doctoral thesis introduce students to current research.Students require a Master degree from ETH or an equivalent degree from anotheruniversity in order to gain admission to doctoral studies. In special cases studentsmust sit an admission exam, the conditions of which are determined on an individualbasis. The most important requirement is that a professor at ETH must be willingto supervise the doctoral thesis (Doctoral Thesis Supervisor).Candidates apply to the Rectorate in writing. The Rectorate determines the documentationwhich is required for enrolment and passes on the application, togetherwith its assessment, to the department designated by the supervisor of the doctoralthesis. The Doctoral Studies Committee (Doktoratsausschuss) reviews the applicationand, after consultation with the supervisor, formulates an application tothe relevant Head of Department. The Head then recommends to the Rector thatthe application be accepted or rejected.Doctoral candidates produce a research plan in consultation with their supervisorwhich details the objectives and content of the doctoral thesis. The completion ofthe doctoral thesis should generally not take more than three to four years fromthe date of admission. The research plan is submitted to the Doctoral StudiesCommittee. An individual deadline is set for compliance with other admission conditions,and in general this should not be longer than one year. The Rectoratechecks whether the additional admission conditions have been met.Doctoral studies ensure that doctoral candidates receive further education in thesubject on which they are writing their doctoral thesis and in other fields. Furthereducational activities are documented in the form of credit points (KP). KP are onlyawarded if the student can demonstrate independent achievement. Students arerequired to document the attainment of at least 12 KP. Students who completetheir doctoral thesis in less than three years are required to attain proportionallyfewer KP. Doctoral candidates must attain at least one third of the KP that theyacquire in fields outside their own field of research.The Referee (usually the supervisor) and the Co-referee each produce a writtenopinion on the doctoral thesis and submit these to the Department prior to the doctoralexam. The doctoral exam consists of an oral exam lasting at least one hour inthe subject of the doctoral thesis. It is held by the examination committee. Thedoctoral exam is held no later than six years after enrolment in the doctoral studies.In exceptional cases the Rector can approve an extension based on the recommendationof the Department. The Examination Committee assesses both thedoctoral thesis and the oral exam as passed or not passed and reports its resultsto the Departmental Conference (Departementskonferenz) of the department inwhich the doctoral candidate is enrolled. The Departemental Conference decides23

whether the doctoral title is to be awarded or refused on the basis of the ExaminationCommittee's report.The doctoral degree is issued on behalf of ETH and presented to the successfulcandidate during the first doctoral award ceremony held after the required numberof copies of the thesis have been submitted. A fee is charged for the degree.Ø For more detailed information please refer to the Rules on Doctoral Studies atETH (Doktoratsverordnung der ETHZ).Ø In addition to carrying out research for their doctoral thesis and their doctoralstudies, doctoral candidates usually also work as assistants and are thus involvedin teaching activities. Employment of this kind ensures a financial basisduring the doctoral period.Ø Graduates of the RW/CSE Program who wish to gain a doctoral qualification atETH do this in the department proposed by the Doctoral Thesis Supervisor.24
