Admission and allocation of places in Medicine and Dental Medicine
Places are awarded for a master's in Medicine and Dental Medicine on the following basis and in this order:
- Students who graduated as a bachelor in the previous semester at the University of Bern
- Applicants who obtained their bachelor's degree at another Swiss university that has an acceptance agreement with the University of Bern
- Applicants who graduated as a bachelor from the University of Bern
You can only be admitted if all admission requirements have been fulfilled and there is a place available.
If you graduated as a bachelor more than five years ago, you do not have an automatic right to be admitted to a master's degree program. The Dean can, however, decide on admission based on individual achievement as well as decide on any additional requirements which can be completed during the program of study.
