Master of Science Msc in Applied Mathematics Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne EPFL is a leading center for mathematical education and research. It comprises three institutes and a research center devoted to the major areas of pure and applied mathematics. The research program in mathematical sciences has a strong international reputation and the collaborations with research groups at EPFL and at other universities offer the possibility of interesting interdisciplinary challenges. The Master in Applied Mathematics concentrates on learning advanced mathematical methods and applications of mathematics. The core subjects are analysis, applied probability and stochastic processes, statistics and data analysis, optimization and operations research, numerical analysis and scientific computing and financial mathematics. The students learn how to approach diverse modeling problems and they gain hands-on experience in an industrial setting during a mandatory internship. This 120 ECTS programme offers two orientations: - Applied Mathematics: broad training in a variety of mathematical topics. - Statistics and Finance: theoretical and practical training in statistical methods and probability models. Both orientations consists of : - 2 semesters of optional and compulsory courses and projects(60 ECTS) - 1 semesters of industrial internship(30 ECTS) - 1 semester Master's thesis (30 ECTS) M / 3 / 120 The holders of a Bachelor degree from EPFL, obtained in the same study field are automatically admitted to the master program.

Master of Science MSc in Applied Physics Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne The training of a physicist does not define itself in terms of a list of specific subjects, but rather by a set of conceptual tools which have bound together a scientific community for centuries and across a broad spectrum of research activities. Through a basic training in mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics, the physicist develops an inclination for a quantitative approach to the understanding of physical phenomena, a strong degree of abstraction and the search for common traits of universal problems. The most outstanding aspect of our Master programme is the involvement of the students in the research laboratories or in the institute of theoretical physics. Practically, each student joins a research group for one day a week. Naturally, the students continue their basic training, taking advanced courses in quantum mechanics, statistical physics, field theory, etc. The 90 ECTS programme consists of: - 22 ECTS of projects and research - 38 ECTS of optional courses - 30 ECTS Master's thesis Possibility to do a 120 ECTS programme by adding a 30 ECTS industrial internhship. Graduates of the 120 ECTS programme will be granted a Master of Science in Applied Physics. M / 4 / 120 The holders of a Bachelor degree from EPFL, obtained in the same study field are automatically admitted to the master program. All other candidates with a bachelor degree can apply.

Master of Science MSc in Bioengineering Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne Training in the Master program in Bioengineering focuses on research and development of technologies applied to life sciences. Students gain solid technical training by studying bioengineering. Specializations of bioengineering include disciplines such as mechanics of biological systems, transport phenomena, biomimetics and tissue engineering. It is also possible to opt for a Minor in Biomedical Technologies or in Biocomputational Sciences. These minors are offered in collaboration with the sections of Computer Science, and Microengineering. The former prepares for the mastering of technologies for diagnosis, cutting edge analytical methods and medical equipment. It gives students the opportunity to be involved in projects related to the application of nanotechnologies to living organisms. The latter orients students towards the modeling of biological systems and bioinformatics. This 120-credit Master's program offers : - 12 ECTS: core courses and projects - 30 ECTS: laboratory and industry - 18 ECTS: additional options - 30 ECTS: specialization in bioengineering or minor in biocomputing or biomedical technologies - 30 ECTS final Master project M / 4 / 120 The holders of a Bachelor degree from EPFL, obtained in the same study field are automatically admitted to the master program. All other candidates should have a Bachelor's degree from a reputable university and excellent academic records. The curriculum requires a solid background in sciences and technology (maths, physics, chemistry, signal processing, electronics and electrical systems, computer sciences) biosciences and medical physiology.
