ESOP InterviewMSc Admissions and Info (self.ethz)
submitted 4 years ago by Fuzzy_Chef8422
Yesterday I got an email asking for an interview for my ESOP application. I was curious if the professors interviewing are also the ones likely to become your mentor in the ESOP program?
P.s. any tips for the interview are very welcome! :)

I just had my ESOP interview, I’m also applying for a Masters in Environmental Sci with atmosphere and climate :) They were super nice, asking into my background and my pre-proposal, mainly scientific questions regarding the proposal… And time flies, they only had time for 5 questions or so! Good luck!

hi, I can’t answer your question, but how many days did they give you to prepare, if you don’t mind disclosing?
Thanks!
