Start of the semester at the ZHdK
Tomorrow, 697 students will begin their studies at Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) on the Toni-Areal. Due to the Covid-19 protection concept, many things are new this year.
Of the first-year students at the ZHdK, 292 enrolled on a Bachelor's or Master's degree course in Music, 114 in Design, 83 in Fine Arts, 109 in Art Education and Transdisciplinarity and 99 in Performing Arts and Film.
The ZHdK is conducting the fall semester 2020 in face-to-face classes despite Corona. In the fall semester, masks will be compulsory in public areas as well as in courses, when working in groups or in the workshops. There will also be some digital teaching options. Masks for use at the ZHdK will be made available to all ZHdK members and guests.
The ZHdK's guidelines and specifications can change at any time. Based on the experience gained in the spring semester 2020, the proportion of digital teaching could be expanded quickly if necessary.
A total of 2194 people are studying at the ZHdK. Of these, 1246 are studying one of the eight Bachelor's degree programs and 948 one of the eleven Master's degree programs. The number of students has remained constant compared to recent years.
