Minors
Minor
The minor is a smaller programme compared to the major. It focuses clearly on a professional qualification and also appears on the degree certificate. Minors comprise 15 or 30 credits.
Together with the major, the minor serves two main purposes:
Deepening and Specialization
Students can specialize within their subject area by studying one of its sub-areas in depth.
Expansion and Supplementation
Students can acquire knowledge, skills and competences in another field or a specific subject area.
Minors by discipline
Cross-Disciplinary Minors

Major-Minor Programme Model
At ZHdK, students choose a Major. In addition to this core subject, they can choose one or two Minors to deepen or expand their major skills and knowledge across various disciplines. This wide choice of courses is unique in Europe and enables students to develop and sharpen their individual profile.
Student Advice
The ZHdK Advisory Network helps students to understand the new programme structure and supports them before or during their studies. The advisory team also shows students how to find their way around the Major-Minor structure and which offerings they can combine.
