| Linking theory and practice
| A unique training opportunity
| The benefits of collaborative research
Interface acts as a link between UNIL students and those working in the field who encounter specific problems - associations, public institutions, citizens' groups, companies, NGOs, foundations or cooperatives in particular. As part of their Master's thesis, students can carry out research in response to an identified need.
Interface is open to all students from UNIL's seven faculties. It is possible to carry out a research project in any of the disciplines taught, with the agreement and under the supervision of a faculty member. Each faculty has its own procedures for validating credits, and the research projects supported by Interface will be adapted accordingly.
Your involvement as a student in a research project proposed by Interface will enable you to validate credits while meeting certain needs in the field. What's more, your work will be supervised by experienced researchers (dissertation directors, for example), with support from Interface on partnership aspects and relations with field players.
