Minors at Humanities and Digital Sciences
The minor is a compulsory part of your Bachelor’s program in which you are free to choose the courses you want to study. In almost every TSHD Bachelor is room for a minor in year 3 (Philosophy in year 2). With this minor you can give a personal touch to your education. In addition, the minor can provide direction for further education or career prospects.
Minor Market
To help you choose your minor, TSHD is organizing a Minor Market. During this market, TSHD's study advisors and minor-coordinators will be present to answer all your questions. The market will take place on Thursday, May 16, 2024 in the Aula and Foyer between 13.00 - 17.00. TSB's Major Minor Market will also take place at the same location, this provides an opportunity to explore these minors as well. We hope to see you there!
Please use the information below to prepare, or to read back after the market:
