  1. Both. She started of with questions about my motivation and then went on to more technical questions when we discussed my proposal and undergraduate thesis. Regarding my undergraduate thesis, she asked about my results and asked how I used the data (what tests I used and their limitations) to come to that conclusion. She also asked me about the technical aspects of my proposal and about previous academic research on the topic. 

     

    Your questions should be similar since she told me that the questions are somewhat set since they are limited to 15 minutes per interview.

     

    Regarding the decisions, would you happen to know when it will roughly come out? My interviewer did tell me that she had to forward the endorsement ASAP since the rectorate wanted it already or something to that effect.

    Does everybody who applied for ESOP are interviewed before taking decisions? Bcoz it seems some departments have not sent any mail regarding ESOP yet. any idea?

  2. Hi all, I also applied to ETH and got accepted, but my programme is Computational Biology though. 

     

    I definitely want to go there in September but it would be difficult without a scholarship. Though I applied for ESOP, it is extremely competitive so I do not expect to get it.

     

    Anyone knows other sources of funding after starting the programme? The website says that it is possible to do an assistantship for 600 CHF/month but I want to know how likely to get it. Somebody also said that the scholarship can be awarded after the first year, but how much?

     

    Can I survive for two years if I have only 10000 CHF with me at the beginning of the programme then find other sources of funding later? Would it be too risky?

    I'm not sure about the exact amount, but there is a scholarship offered for the second year of your master's. According to ETH, a student is expected to spend about 22000 CHF per year (tuition +living cost).
