UniDistance Suisse and Idiap Strengthen their Partnership for the Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence UniDistance Suisse and the Idiap Research Institute are strengthening their collaboration in the field of artificial intelligence and continuing the development of the Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence together. As Switzerland’s first distance-learning Master’s programme in artificial intelligence, the fully redesigned programme welcomed 55 students at the start of the autumn semester 2026.

Accreditation UniDistance Suisse Research

UniDistance Suisse Commits to Exemplary Research Practices In collaboration with the University of Zurich and HES-SO, UniDistance Suisse is launching the project “Open Online Course in Good Research Practices”: an innovative program aimed at promoting good scientific practices among PhD students and postdocs. The ambitious initiative is led by Prof. Dr Thomas Voigt, Assistant Professor of Mathematics with a tenure track at UniDistance Suisse.

Psychology

First doctoral student at UniDistance Suisse - Title awarded by UNIGE Dr Mariela Mihaylova has successfully completed her doctoral thesis – as the first PhD candidate at UniDistance Suisse within the framework of a collaboration with the University of Geneva, which awarded her the academic degree.
