Assessments and Master Thesis
MILE students receive their grades on the basis of the following assessments:
- Exams:
Students are required to complete a 24-hour written assessment, given on Thursday evenings for each weekly module. In lieu of a written paper, students are sometimes assessed by way of closed book exams or multiple choice tests.
- Master thesis:
Students are required to complete a master's thesis on a selected topic as part of their MILE studies. The student will work in conjunction with a tutor to develop a suitable topic for independent research. Students must submit their work by September 30 of the academic year in which they complete the MILE program.
Grades
Grades for the weekly papers and for the master’s thesis will be allocated according to the ECTS (European Credit Trade System) with an A allocated to the best students and an F given for work of insufficient quality.
The title of Master of International Law and Economics is awarded if the student attains, on average, a grade of E or better. The grade will be indicated on the diploma with an appropriate qualification: The title of Master of International Law and Economics will be conferred jointly by the Universities of Berne, Neuchâtel and Fribourg.
