Major-Minor Programme Model

In the future, ZHdK will offer a unique study programme, which enables students to sharpen their Major with a Minor. In the Master Dance programmes students can choose between two Dance-Minors (“Rehearsal Management”, “Expanded Choreography”), which however are not compulsory.
