Fall Semester / 1st Semester:

Each minor of 30 EC is a fixed one-semester study programme (5 months = 30 EC).

*The two minor modules of 15 EC are offered over 10 weeks in both halves of the spring semester. They can be followed in the first half (Feb – Apr) or second half (Apr – Jul) of the semester, either as a single module of 15 EC or combined in case a student requires a full minor programme of 30 EC.
Unfortunately, in Spring 2022 'Ethical Making..' will not be offered. Therefore it is only possible to follow the other 15 EC module 'Impact Storytelling'.
