Minors: programmes to expand horizons

What are minors

Minors are optional interdisciplinary programmes designed to complement your degree programme.
Minor topics range from managing the impact of climate change to understanding and communicating data; from creating smart solutions to the interconnections between science and humanities. Topical subjects that can provide useful skills to expand your future study and work opportunities.

Why enrol in a minor

There are many good reasons to enrol in a minor:

• interest in learning new things
• opportunity to enrich your education
