Student Reviews
Representative reviews"A great decision"
Coming here has changed how I think. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, would like to see more industry guest speakers in later years. On the city โ weekend skiing / hiking access is a genuine selling point. Overall, if you're considering Master in German at University of Lausanne, I'd say go for it.
"Would do it again"
I was sceptical before starting โ now I'd recommend it to anyone. The best part: small-group tutorials really push your thinking. If I'm honest, accommodation allocation was stressful in the first year. On the city โ expensive, but public transport is impeccable and very safe. Overall, if you're considering Master in German at University of Lausanne, I'd say go for it.
