- Why is the Algorithms and Data Structures course helpful for the new CBB students?
- The philosophy of our MSc is to educate the students broadly, this includes giving them a stepping stone to developing their own algorithms which is surely a direction they could further pursue in the field of computational biology and bioinformatics. Algorithms and Data Structures is a first year computer science bachelor course, taught in the programming language of C++, which can be learned from the lecture series Computer Science (252-0856) - a recommended prerequisite for the data structures & algorithms course- (see C++ style guide of this course).

- Can more lectures be recorded?
- The choice on whether or not to record lectures/tutorials/ and Q&A sessions is up to the individual Professor and cannot be enforced. Some teachers find in person interaction a key component to their lecture, it is therefore important to respect their choice in this regard. Additionally, the ETH rector is strongly promoting a full return to in person lectures as this improves the overall teaching quality and discourages students from overlapping their modules.
- Where can I find the course survey results?
- https://ethz.ch/staffnet/en/teaching/academic-support/teaching-evaluation.html. Scroll down to the section " access to results for students ".
- Does D-BSSE have a career event?
- Yes, it’s called D-BSSE Meets Industry, this is their website: https://bsse-industry.ethz.ch.
- Does D-BSSE have an event where they discuss thesis and lab rotation projects?
- Yes, it’s called Master Match and is held twice a year by the VMB association of D-BSSE ( for more information on this association, see https://bsse.ethz.ch/department/D-BSSE-Initiatives/VMB.html ).
- Can I get reimbursed for traveling to Basel for a course?
- In certain cases, yes. Contact the study coordinator for further information: https://bsse.ethz.ch/department/administration-services/student-admin.html
