This year we offer two minor subject packeges: DVD and SOiN (see below). The accepted students may get the opportunity to participate in other Media Lab activities and courses, up to 20-40 cp (ECTs); each of our minor subject packages is 20 cp minimum. Participation in the minor subject studies can also offer opportunities for additional collaboration in our research projects or further studies.

Please note, if you plan to apply outside of Finland: In case that your university has the exhange agreement with our university, application process is quite easy. But if we don't have the agreement, your studies here cost money (the fee is about 10 e/cr). You might also have visa problems, which we don't wish for, because it's very important that you can start your studies here in time.
