ETH Medal and Willi Studer Prize 2023
The Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering has awarded nine Master’s students with the ETH Medal and six with the Willi Studer Prize. The awards for their outstanding achievements were presented during the Master's Ceremony 2023.
The ETH Medal is awarded as a distinction for outstanding Master's theses. Prerequisites are a grade of 6.0 for the thesis, an average final grade of at least 5.25 as well as a written endorsement by the thesis supervisor. In addition to scientific excellence, aspects such as the innovative character of the thesis, the selection of an independent research approach or the contribution to the research work of the group are also considered.
ETH Zurich awards the Willi Studer Prize to the best graduate from each Master's program. If more than one student achieves the best grade in a degree program, all students with a top grade receive the Willi-Studer Prize.
