Scholarship details
The Biozentrum offers a limited number of scholarships for international candidates who are applying for the MSc Physics of Life with outstanding records of accomplishment.
The scholarship amount is 25 000 CHF, which is paid out in three installments, one in each of the three semesters of the MSc Physics of Life.
The scholarship is not an employment at the University of Basel. The scholarship amount can be used as a contribution to the cost of living and studying for the MSc Physics of Life in Basel, e.g. to cover the tuition fees, rent, health insurance. The costs of living in Switzerland are high, and the scholarship is unlikely to cover all living expenses.
Applicants are expected to have an outstanding record of academic accomplishments.
These scholarships are highly competitive and the selection criteria are primarily academic excellence and motivation.
The call for applications for the scholarship is open from 1 March to 30 April for fall admission and 1 September to 31 October for spring admission.
The application procedure for the scholarships is independent from the application procedure for admission to the MSc Physics of Life degree program at the University of Basel. If you would like to apply for the scholarship, you must also apply for admission to the MSc Physics of Life degree program. However, applying for admission to the MSc Physics of Life degree program does not require you to apply for the scholarship.
Applications for the scholarship must be submitted through the online scholarship application system. As part of the online application system, at least one letter of recommendation is required: Applicants need to provide names and contact information of at least one referee from their previous academic environment.
Applications will be evaluated by the teaching committee. Scholarship award decisions by the teaching committee are final and are conditional upon admission to the MSc Physics of Life program at the University of Basel. Submitting an application does not result in a legal claim to receiving a scholarship.
