Research quality

Research at ZHdK is carried out in the arts, design and education/instruction Research quality is evident in the output and impact of the research performance, in the promotion of up-and-coming talent, the framework conditions, and the range of support services provided for researchers. Those responsible use a range of instruments to facilitate this process:

Evaluations and monitorings
