Sources

• Legal notice https://www.unibas.ch/en/Legal-notice.html

  The official legal notice lists University of Basel as the publisher and gives the address Petersplatz 1, 4001 Basel, Switzerland.

  Model elements: this source is used for institution identity and location.

• Degree Programs https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/Before-My-Studies/Degree-Programs.html?degree=bachelor&view=list

  The official degree program finder lists named bachelor courses of study and bachelor subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Human Medicine, Law, Sport, Economics and multiple faculty or extra-faculty bachelor subjects.

  Model elements: Basel undergraduate admission and catalog navigation are organised around named programmes and subjects, not around a fully open bachelor entry point.

• Changing Degree Program, Degree Subjects https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/In-My-Studies/Semester-Registration/Changing-Program--Minor-Subjects-etc..html

  The official page for already matriculated students describes changing a degree program or degree subject as a request during semester registration for the forthcoming semester.

  Model elements: this supports the programChoice 0 boundary. Program or subject change exists as an administrative process, not as evidence of a common-core model with ordinary later choice of a major, second subject or specialization.

• Deutsche Philologie Bachelor https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/Before-My-Studies/Degree-Programs/Degree-Programs.html?study=Deutsche-Philologie-BA

  The official subject page lists Deutsche Philologie as a Bachelor subject with the structure 2 disciplines with subject, duration 6 semesters and 180 credits.

  The study structure says the Bachelor of Arts has 180 credit points: Deutsche Philologie is studied as one of two study subjects of 75 credit points each, plus a free elective area of 30 credit points.

  It says the second bachelor subject can come from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences or from an extra-faculty bachelor subject, and that the free elective area consists of freely chosen courses for deepening, insight into other Basel subjects or language acquisition.

  Strict review: this confirms an equal two-subject bachelor structure, but not in-study selection of the second subject after enrolment. It is kept as evidence of structure and internal course choice through the 30 credit free elective area.

• Sport, Exercise and Health: Sport Science route https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/Before-My-Studies/Degree-Programs/Degree-Programs.html?study=Sport-Bewegung-Gesundheit-Sportwissenschaft-BSc

  The official page says the Sport, Exercise and Health bachelor has two study routes and lists the Sport Science route as a bachelor subject with a second subject.

  The overview gives the structure as 2 disciplines with subject. The study structure gives 180 credit points: 99 in Sport Science, 75 in an extra-faculty subject and 6 in an elective area.

  Model elements: this confirms that Basel's two-subject model is not limited to one humanities example; it also appears in a science bachelor route with an extra-faculty second subject.

• Human Medicine Bachelor https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/Before-My-Studies/Degree-Programs/Degree-Programs.html?study=Humanmedizin-BM

  The official Human Medicine page lists the bachelor as a course of studies, degree Bachelor, structure 1 course, duration 6 semesters and 180 credits.

  Model elements: together with the subject pages, this supports a 3 year bachelor duration across the sampled Basel bachelor models. The later medical master's phase is not counted as bachelor duration.

• Mobility https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/In-My-Studies/Mobility.html

  The official mobility page presents international exchange programmes, the Swiss Mobility Program for one or two semesters at another Swiss university, and Eucor as regular options for University of Basel students.

  It says the University of Basel student ID allows students to attend classes and use facilities at Eucor universities in Basel, Freiburg, Strasbourg, Mulhouse-Colmar and Karlsruhe.

  Model elements: this source establishes that external course attendance is an institutional student route, not only an ad hoc exception.

• Eucor, The European Campus https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/In-My-Studies/Mobility/Mobility-Europe/Eucor-Epicur/Eucor.html

  The official Eucor page says Basel students can take individual courses or study for up to two semesters at the University of Freiburg, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, University of Strasbourg and University of Haute-Alsace.

  It states that after approval by the study coordinator, students can have credit points for individual Eucor courses recognised for the current semester; it also says a full Eucor semester or two can earn credit points at a partner university.

  Model elements: this is direct evidence for courseChoice 4, because external courses at partner universities can count as recognised credit in the Basel degree.

• Mobility Switzerland https://www.unibas.ch/en/Studies/In-My-Studies/Mobility/Mobility-Switzerland.html

  The official Swiss mobility page says the Bologna process arranges for recognition of periods of study and coursework completed at guest universities, and that questions concerning recognition of coursework should be resolved ahead of time with the relevant office.

  It also recommends discussing planned exchange at another Swiss university with a specialised advisor and checking course certificates issued by the host university.

  Strict cross-registration review: general Swiss mobility is treated only as secondary context. The courseChoice 4 basis is Eucor, where Basel students can attend individual courses at partner universities and seek recognition of the credit points for the current semester.

• THE World University Rankings 2026: University of Basel https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/university-basel

  The Times Higher Education profile lists the University of Basel as 120 in the World University Rankings 2026.

  The catalog stores the value as 120.
