Université de Lausanne

What you'll study

Part-time registration does not change the academic objectives of the chosen Master's degree: students pursue the same learning outcomes as full-time peers but spread the workload over a longer period and organise attendance to fit other commitments. Planning must take into account course scheduling, expected workload, and potential classes at other higher education institutions if the curriculum requires it.

Entry requirements

The university asks prospective part-time Master students to register and to direct any questions about admission to the admission services. For personalised guidance on whether part-time study fits your situation, you may request an information appointment with the Service d'orientation et carrières. Official regulatory texts (including the university's directives) determine formal admission conditions.

Career prospects

The source text does not specify particular career outcomes for part-time Master students. In general, completing a Master's while employed can support career progression, professional qualification or transition by enabling credential completion alongside ongoing work or life responsibilities.

Scholarships & funding angle (general)

If you plan to finance studies with a cantonal grant, verify whether such support is available for part-time enrolment. The university reminds applicants that only official regulatory texts are authoritative regarding eligibility for grants and other funding.
