Study Plan MTE & Rules

AUTUMN SEMESTER 2026-27

Special schedule

MTE Course explorer 2026-2027

Build your personalised MTE study plan for 2026-2027. Browse all core and option courses, filter by semester, number of credits, course type or area of interest (for option courses), and select the courses you plan to take. Track your ECTS credits in real time as you build your plan. Note that this explorer covers core and option courses only and does not include minor courses. The disciplinary minor includes 30 credits of master-level courses chosen from the study plans of other EPFL sections.

This tool is for planning purposes for the 2026-2027 academic year only. Do not use it to plan your full Master programme, as the 2027-2028 study plan may change for some courses.

Course registration must be completed on IS-Academia following EPFL’s official process and your Section’s rules.
